UTG had just lost most of his stack on the previous. I was thinking a push might isolate vs his rather wide range. Wasn't sure if I should do it or not though.

Hero folds. I hate calling with small pairs in general, much less so with that many players left to act.

A very interesting spot. You aren't that big of a favorite over even a wide range, but with you covering him and the significant blind overlay, the numbers look good despite the fact that you are so far out of position.

You still have to have villian on at least any ace, PPs, QJ, stuff like that, but that seems likely.

I would fold here. Five live players behind me and losing cripples me with the blinds about to hit.
