Default ($16) Two all-in\'s before me, is this a call?

This is the first time I am posting a hand and i've tried to stick to the FAQ suggestions, sorry if it's wrong.

Poker Stars, $15 + $1 NL Hold'em Tournament, 25/50 Blinds, 7 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

BTN: 1,310
SB: 445
BB: 2,225
Hero (UTG): 1,455
UTG+1: 2,320
MP: 1,845
CO: 3,900

Pre-Flop: (75) T T dealt to Hero (UTG)
Hero raises to 150, UTG+1 folds, MP raises to 1,845 and is All-In, SB calls 420 and is All-In,

Hero?


Is this a fold UTG? Do I call now?
I have no reads on either player.

I find that over bet all ins are AK at best for your hand..

This is a fold.

I call with QQ+ here I think, as the rraiser is in MP.

Does calling AK, folding JJ make sense here?

I folded thinking that I could not call without minimum QQ(and yet I would of still considered folding)

Amazingly one had A5 and the other had A8.
That's why I wondered whether my fold was right or wrong.

In general I agree with the fold as well. I think you just got unlucky that both your opponents were fabulously donktastic.

Actually, yes. Very subtle concept.

I stoved it and AK is better against AA-JJ, AK.

Throw in AQ and AK is actually ahead. JJ still way behind.

I think you've just made me money. Cheers bro.

It's almost a rule of low buyin SNGs: if you call, they have AA; if you fold, they have ace-rag.
