The UTG guy has a super wide range obv, however the UTG+1 must be fairly strong to shove with 4 bigger stacks to get through. I prefer to fold here, AQ is unlikely to have a big chunk of equity in a 3 way pot.

 

Calling isn't too bad if you're happy to gamble, win this one and you'll be in great shape. Just winning the side pot against UTG+1 increases your stack.

I'm not sure how to read the HU so this will be based off no prior information just this hand this could change depending on UTG+1's game. This is an area of my game I've been working on for sometime now I've made some pretty nitty lay downs because I've always assigned the reraiser in these situations a much stronger range than they deserve and as a result made some very regretable lay downs. Utg should be shoving any two here to retain any chance of a fold..utg+1's range subjests some kind of hand given it's the bubble and hes willing to trade positions with the bubble boy even with that I believe he could easily have (A9+/KJ+/QJ+/6's+) he's just a desperate for chips as the short stack, you should be reshoving here Imo. unless youre being coolered (up against QQ or AA) which I'm about 95% sure thats not the case, your hand plays well if not dominates his entire range except for two hands (AK or KK). Best case scenario you have a commanding chiplead and have put yourself in a great position to take this down. Worst case youre still in this with some fold equity. 

P.S. Don't be results oriented if you get it in right.

Utg+1 left 3k behind? I dont think I’m folding here. Im taking a shot with that hand as it is likely ahead of most of their range. If they covered Im prob folding.

Just following up with the rest of the hand.

 

I wasn't concerned with the UTG short stack, but the raise from UTG+1 just looked WAY too strong (a shove would've looked weaker in my eyes). In the end I decided to FOLD and ere on the side of caution.

 

UTG+1 tables KK.
