Late stages of a small turbo on stars. Do we isolate the jammer or fold here? No reads on villain.

I think it is a fold; you can call with something like TT+, AQ+. I'm not calling 20 bb readless when I am UTG, even if there wasn't another player to worry about.

I was gonna say ISO shove but I would like to analyse this further in order to further my own knowledge.
This looks like a juicy squeeze spot with these stack sizes although position does reduce that possibility.
Even when we give villain tight squeeze range of 44-JJ KQs QJs JTs AKs AQs AK AQand KQo we only have 53.9%equity. (Poker stove)
Although I think smaller pairs set mine here so removing 44-66 we have 47.8% equity. If anyone could tell me the next step in analysing this that would be great. Pot odds ??
I think analysing situations in this way could stop a bit of instinctively bad play (on my part) and provide a framework for objective decision making.
So at this stage it’s a fold margins are too thin. (Didn’t mean to hijack thread, thanks for the post 🙂

I'm making what I consider a very easy fold – and 20 BB in a turbo is a lot of chips.

When you opened pre from UTG, did you notice the stack sizes of the the rest of the players? There are seven opp's with 3b shoving stacks (UTG+2, MP1 & 2, CO, BTN, SB and BB). Were you planning on calling any of these shoves? Before I open from UTG mid to late in a tourney, I look at stacks and make a plan for possible shoves. I imagine you would've called the <10bb stacks, but what about the 10-18bb stacks and the 20bb stack?
With the way this played out, I would fold here. The best you're hoping for is a race, as opponent probably isn't doing this with worse than 88. Folding still gives you 33bb's, plenty to work with.
