Default BM MTT - Call this with 55 in the BB?

Agressive blind schedule. Go up every 10 mins. Starting stacks 10K.

Blinds 2000/1000
Hero's stack ~30000

UTG fold
UTG+1 all-in for 8K
5 folds
Button all-in for 10K
SB fold
Hero has 55

Read: UTG+1 and Button both seem to understand the constraint they are under.

Call it or let it go?

Fold, you're likely drawing to two outs.

call. even if you are against a big pair, it's not that big a deal. you're calling 8k to with 29k, so you need to win ~27%, but sometimes you lose the main and win the side, so call it 26%. if there's an overpair, you're 18%. if it's 4 over cards, you're ~32%. but you're also sometimes up against 44, or AT & A9, in which case you're much better off. i'd call, but it's fairly close.

I fold here...UTG+1 hand could be almost anything...probably at least 2 overcards to your pp...but the Button going all-in probably indicates he at least has a mid-pp or two high overcards...so i dont really like my chances against 2 already all in for 1/3 of my stack
