before reading the hand, my read was that utg had A,x as he has min raised with this hand a few times prior. I put on anything from small pairs to A,x to a big pair. If I am sure that utg will not raise pf would this be a good call in order to try to bust sb out as I think all three of us could have live cards?

Hero (t3635)
<font color="#C00000">UTG (t2040)</font>
MP (t1590)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T/images/graemlins/club.gif, 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t400</font>, MP folds, CO folds, Button folds, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t585</font>, Hero?

Any thoughts appreciated, Ryan

I fold here, if only because I'd really rather not triple SB up.

if you're pretty sure UTG is weak, i think a reraise here is good. all in is fine, since any decent raise will pot commit him anyways.

i think folding is very bad unless you read utg to be quite tight.

thanks to all, I just wanted to be sure I did the right thing. I was being too results oriented as the flop came T,K,6 rainbow and the other showed down A,9 and A,7. No help came to either and the SB won. Alas, I was pissed that I had the read right but did not call. In the end though, I think folding so as not to tripple up the sb is the right move.

So the question is whether you call in the hopes that UTG will check down with you to bust the small stack?

Fold fold fold.
