Re: Stars $11 Rebuy aq with a raise behind
I fold all these situations early when I'm moved to a new table, simply to learn more about my villains.

Re: Stars $11 Rebuy aq with a raise behind
Am I stupid for thinking a push is a bad play at this stage of the tournament?
UTG might have a big pair but he might not (I've seen lots of strange UTG limps at this stage, SCs, small pairs, Ax). CO certainly doesn't think so and does not need a dominating hand to raise you, and might raise with worse. Factor in FE and an argument can be made for a push.

Re: Stars $11 Rebuy aq with a raise behind
I probally should have mentioned this in the OP but I've played a fair amount with the UTG limper and he can be limping a huge range I'm really not worried about him having a big pair.

[/ QUOTE ] I can see several different ways that this could be played, not sure what is the most +EV. I do think that you are overestimating FE when villain has 1/4 of his stack invested. Maybe 20-30% ish. Maybe less.

Re: Stars $11 Rebuy aq with a raise behind
Borderline, I think. It becomes much easier if:
- The raiser is at all aggressive/thinking. If he may be pwning the limper, I shove this without a moment's hesitation. -The raise were not such a large portion of his stack. It doesn't want a call, but it's large enough that I don't know that you have as much FE as you'd like. Anyone want to take a flop in position? It's over 10% of your stack, so probably not, but I thought I'd ask.
