I had this hand come up on day 2 of SCOOP 24 – L with 125 or so left, I was around 75th with mid 20 BB. Chipleader at the table who has been very active opens in early position with min raise. I call in cutoff with 10 10 willing to see a fold with active table chipleader and play in position against him. It folds to BB who has 15 BB who shoves. I'm ready to call if opener folds or flats.  He shoves to put me all-in. Is this an instant call or fold since one of them likely to have over pair or is the chipleader shove likely that he just has weaker pair or Ax and trying to isolate BB? Thoughts appreciated as this is the hand that bothers me most about my run in this event.

In terms of payout, locked up $500 at this point, but 1st was $48K so does that impact how to play this situation?

Well yes, against two shoves its not unheard of that you are behind with TT. Yes, the chipleader could isoshove something worse and the shorty could also likely have something that you are ahead of, but when you slowplay TT like this you gotta accept that you dont really have enough info to decide on this, it depends on their stats, but I would probably fold. I would also 3bet this PF like 90% of the time, but its ok to mix it up sometimes. The payouts of the scoop were not unusual, I think, sure stack preservation is not a bad idea. I had a few deep runs that lost in the deciding flips or ran into monsters too.
