Default hero vomits and...? ($150 Stars)

UTG+1 is a fairly tight player...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

UTG+1 (t7483)
MP1 (t4775)
MP2 (t4453)
MP3 (t5802)
CO (t1745)
Button (t5020)
Hero (t2145)
BB (t7520)
UTG (t4579)

Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls t200, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t775</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>,

Hero?

Pushes. It's a tough spot but you are getting pretty shortstacked and this could be your best spot. His range could definitely be AQ, AK, or 99,tens. I can't see passing up this spot.

The range I put him on when I vomited was TT+, AQ+. He had not raised early once from what I had seen.

wonders why he is vomiting and then notices the easy decision he is faced with.
Edit: How many orbits have you played with him?

You're hurting for chips. Definitely push here.

maybe I'm high, but please describe your ranges for a fairly tight player to be raising 4xbb UTG+1 after a limp.
