CO (t2385)
Button (t820)
SB (t1677)
BB (t315)
UTG (t1460)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t200</font>,Hero raise all in t580, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, UTG calls t380.

Quick check up here. Raiser has been pretty tight for a 22. An I short enough here to push anywhay, or can I let it go?

Yea...I go ahead and push. I'm not excited about it though.

Seems okay to me, but I don't love it much; just that you only have one hand left after this and if you don't push this, you'll be pushing a big old range next hand, and probably get looked up by some donk with QTo, or whatever

I'd probably fold.

You have a read that UTG is tight, so he needs a pretty good hand to play rom that position when he has 15 BBs. His minraise is just begging for action and is showing a lot of strenth. You are likely way behind, or a coinflip at best.

You have a good read, so use it. Without a read, I push in a heartbeat.

Another consideration is how many hands until the blinds raise? If it's in the next 2 hands, then I'd likely push. If not, I'd look for a better spot.

This is one place I might consider a Stop and Go, since you're pretty much 100% to get called preflop, and he might might might fold after the flop if he misses or doesn't like the board. It just seems you have zero FE preflop and you might have some post-flop, and I think you're too short to give up AJ. Its probably marginal either way plus I've been told I suck with Stop and Goes anyway...

You're OOP for a stop 'n go.
The raiser was UTG
