I agree. Gap Concept says this is a fold.

I fold here. Not saying that calling is flat out wrong but it is quite risky.

I personally like to keep it simple when multitabling which is a big part of why I fold. Often the raiser will have AA, KK, QQ or AK which could lead to me losing a big pot, maybe my stack. Even if the raiser has a lesser hand I don't know how often I could hope to win a big pot myself to make up for the losses. I just can't see realistically winning a big pot that often from what, AJ, AT? I just don't see it. Call me weak tight if you like but I'm quite comfortable with folding here.

This is an important consideration, probably the biggest one encouraging a fold.

I think this is a difficult-to-play yet +EV call.

I think folding this in level 1, MP, to a pretty big raise (45 is not too big, and I'd call that), is pretty standard.
