My thoughts on this hand.
Whenever I see a min-raise late in a tournament it sets off an alarm in my head and I immediately stop and think hmm, strength. After the second or third time I'll conclude that this is villian typical play. However, better safe than sorry and this was the first time UTG had min-raise. I didn't even think about the min-raise just being a safe bet to fold in case I push (which I had been doing a lot of) or that it could have just been a raise to cover the small stack in case he moved in, however I don't think you see this play too much. At the time of the fold I was thinking ok, I've got the chip lead, I can fold this hand and safely coast to the chip lead on the bubble (which is where I want to be) and let the other players bust each other to the bubble. I decided that the risk of getting called and beaten thus sacfricing my chip lead was not worth 700 chips in the pot and the possiblity of knocking out a player to get to the bubble.
