Default Weird Q,Q bubble hand

Sorry, no converter

Me: Button 2,829
Villian 1: SB 5,579
Villian 2: UTG 3,289

blinds: 60/120

UTG calls 120
HERO raises to 480 (Qs,Qd)
SB raises to 1,111 (he's been making weird raises constantly
BB folds
UTG reraises 3,289 All-in

Hero?

easy fold, it's hard for me to imagine that you have both of them beat. it's possible there is some goofiness going on, but i would never put my life on the line by getting all of my chips in pf without really even knowing where i'm at.

I'm not sure this is an easy fold, depends on how donkish the villians are, any reads on them?

the one who kept making raises to random numbers raised about 1/2 the hands he played, and of those, folded about 1/2 to a re-raise so it wasn't him I was concerned about. Throughout the tourney, the UTG player usually just made standard raises, never limp re-raised. I didn't really know how to interpret this and wasn't sure if his reasoning had something to do with being on the bubble. It was possible it was a brilliantly executed game plan, unless he'd noticed that I'd played about 3 hands up to that point.

This is a tough one. If UTG is solid, you have to figure he has the same read on the SB as you do, and his calling range could be large enough that you have him beat as well. I'm in the money already, and I'm short-stacked, so I think I am calling here.

This is a bubble hand there are four people involved. OP missed off one of the stack sizes (put all stack sizes on in future please)

This is a tough hand, JJ would be insta-fold. I might have sharkscoped the villian and based my decission on the result there.

sorry about not putting in the other info in. the other player had about 2,000.

i don't use poker tracker or hud or any of that other stuff, so i didn't have access to their "stats."
