I'd bet a little less on the flop and fold to a raise.

I like just limping since it's early in the tourney. Then if all undercards fall you can lead out, as long as nobody raised you preflop.

That's how I play it, and I fold to that re-raise.

Fold fearing a higher pocket pair? What exactly are you thinking when you fold to the reraise... First thing tha struck me is maybe MP1 raised preflop with pocket 3's maybe or maybe he hit top pair with a good kicker...

Just wondering why you would fold..

I think this is a clear push/fold spot, and I think folding might be right.

Well if Im playing this hand to the river. Shouldnt I just push the flop after the reraise? Ive seen players raise UTG with J3 and 82. I think maybe I should of went for a c/r or pushed to his reraise.

MP is either on an excellent draw, is an idiot, or has you beat. I'd fold to fight another day.

I also might consider checking the flop first expecting to play back.
