Yeah I fold to the re-raise PF.

Well I figured the second guy in the hand, judging from his previous play, was calling (bad assumption?). I see myself getting 3-1 if he calls and 2-1 if he doesn't good odds. I figure if I hit an A or K on the flop, I am getting all my money in and expecting to see 88+ from the villain.

you figure that if you flop an A or K, your opponent will get all in with you with 88+ even thougt there's at least and A or K, and possibly another over card to his pair out there? this seems odd.

Calling preflop is bad. I think folding is right here. Unless you have this sneaky suspition that UTG has crap and is trying to shut you out...then i might push possibly...but i doubt it.

No, I should have phrased that better. I expect my opponent has 88+ in his range with this re-raise, my mistake.

Push/fold pf based on your read of villian.
