Interesting situation. Yeah I think you have to fold here since you are all in on the next hand no matter what happens. Your only real shot is SB getting knocked out on this hand and taking third.

im not 100% sure it is that straight forward. If i call here and win, i cannot eliminate the SB. However, if i win this hand i have 150 chips (assuming utg+1 folds). I then only have to survive the BB, if i do so i have 300 chips(at least) and could fold in the sb. The other shortstack would be all in on the following hand. I could either fold or call here hoping that either me or the SB beats the short stack.

However, if i call here and any1 but myself wins, I am eliminated 4th. If i fold here and sb wins, i must surive the next two blinds as i will be all in on both of them.

this is such an easy fold if SB is all-in. You have a 50% of making the money please dont blow it.

I do this, and I think it's correct. If you have 138 chips, CALL, immediately, and do it with quite a few more hands than QQ.
