2-table SnG, tables combined about 10 hands earlier

UTG+1 & MP1 both seem tight, but MP1 is short-stacked. I expect at least one to have a premium hand.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP1 (t705)
MP2 (t2485)
MP3 (t2505)
CO (t2735)
Hero (t4460)
SB (t6955)
BB (t2450)
UTG (t1020)
UTG+1 (t3685)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to t705</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>

Hero???

(results unimportant, but they're below in white)

<font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero folds, SB folds, BB folds

UTG+1 calls t105.

Flop: (t1710) Qd, Td, 6s

Turn: (t1710) 4d

River: (t1710) 8c

Final Pot: t1710

jesus christ that's a bad fold.
there's one player behind you who can bust you and you have the 3rd best hand in poker? there's a short stack all in and a ep raiser...

my only thoughts here would be if a raise smaller than all in would inspire the original raiser to get deeper involved with the hand at a bad price for him.

but likely, with 1600 chips already in the middle, i don't think i could restrain myself from pushing here.

I would push to isolate the short stack. The only hand I'm really afraid of from UTG is AK.

I push all in to get heads up with MP1. If UTG+1 comes along then fine.

you shouldn't be afraid of AK here.

additionally, why on earth aren't you afraid of AA or KK?

getting heads up with the short stack is nice and all, but mostly i push here to try to limit it to a maximum of 3 players.
