Good or bad play? I realize this is the bubble and that folding is probably +EV but UTG had made several min raises and every time was on a steal and he wasn't risking his stack on any sort of all in without QQ/KK/AA and the SB was a complete fish. So was this smart or stupid?

Also I raised 2 consecutive pots before this if this matters for table image purposes

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

SB (t2600)
Hero (t2655)
UTG (t3775)
Button (t4470)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.

doesn't reraising to 1k do the same thing? If he has 2 overs he calls, and if he has bigger pocket pair he pushes...

Hell call and bet out on any flop, u still have plenty of chips to play poker...

If I raise 1000 and get called by the original raiser than I am forced into a sticky situation where I'm out of position with a 2750 pot with 1600 left. Thats why I figured this was a push or fold scenario and I thought I had fold equity and the best hand.
