Any reads on UTG+1? Against range of QQ+;AKo+, u have 38% equity, which is almost exact to your pot odds. If this range is reasonable then the call is EV neutral. So fortunately for u, it's hard to make a mistake here.

Yes I did think he had a pair but I did not think it to be Aces or Kings, I figured there was just enough in the pot to make it worthwhile to try and draw out on him.

It was good there were 123 people and I made it into the money, but only 14th, not far enough to get the good money. The levels go up every 15 minutes so unless you have a big stack you are in trouble pretty fast. You have to play a little hyper aggressive. It was a lot of fun however.

no, the small blind was 800, the big blind was only 400 so his raise to 1500 was well above the required minimum
