I agree.....Unless I'm walking into some sort of trap here by agreeing...

No, I have no particular reason to believe his raise means AA or that kind of thing.

Really? I don't think it's that obvious..

UTG makes a big raise that seems like he doesn't want action at a not particularly aggressive table, and I'm the only stack that can really cripple him.

The chip leader is opening with the short (but not so short that they can't fold) stack in the BB. Even UTG, this is a pretty natural spot to go for a steal. durron hasn't said much about how aggressive the big stack is, but I think this is a pretty easy push unless you're talking about a very tight opponent, or one who will call your push with 33 on a regular basis here.

Obviously he called and I lost, I am looking for confirmation.

What about 77? I expected him to fold 77 here but he was one of those opponents it was hard to tell (IMO anyway).
