Default Push here utg?

No reads as i tried 12 tabling. lol


Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t20/t40
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
Hero: t1470
UTG+1: t1710
MP1: t1650
MP2: t1455
CO: t1455
Button: t1455
SB: t2805
BB: t1500

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t120</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls t120 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t180)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t540</font>, 2 folds, SB calls t520. Hero? <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t840)</font>.

Results:
Final pot: t1360

I can easily fold this since it is way early in the tournament. It's a 2 dollar turbo and i'm normally shown hands like ak all the time. Worth the risk this early? If so push or just call?

Routine fold. Let your skill mean something later on.

Muck it, pretty much immediately. The only reason to even consider the shove is that it's a $2 table and people are super crazy at that level. However, reraising someone UTG w/ AJo qualifies as crazy, and that's still a race. Basically, easy fold--you're coinflipping a lot at best here.

I agree with PTB that limping is best here. I'm not looking to get TT allin pre here so why build the pot in a turbo where chips are going to be tossed around? That being said, I fold to the raise here.
