Default Small PP allin pre-flop

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $52.30
BB: $100.55
UTG: $21.95
CO: $44.25
Hero (BTN): $51.20

Preflop: Hero is dealt 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5 Players)
UTG calls $0.50, CO folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.00</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">UTG raises to $6.75</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises all-in to $51.20</font>, UTG calls all-in for $15.20
Uncalled bet of $0.00 returned to Hero

I canīt call his reraise for setvalue because of his small stack, but my small pocket pair has a small edge against hands like AKs and worse as long he dosent have a bigger pocketpair then me, right?

I had just sat down at the table and donīt have a read on him, but considering his small stack size my guess is that he is bad.

So what is the best play here fold, go all-in or is there a other way to play this.

I'm folding to his 3bet, the best that you can hope for is two overcards and pocket pairs from 77+ are all in his range.

If he's the kind of player to limp-reraise AA/KK then I'm happy to let this go and get my money in in a better spot.

I like it a lot better with 88+, or if he were a lot shorter (~20BB)

Fold it. It's true that you are a bit ahead of his overcard range, but you are very far behind his pocket pair range. Put these together and it doesn't look good.

Why would you do this? You can find way better spots than a coinflip, at best. Besides, the utg limp RR is usually pretty strong.

Terrible play

Not a good move. I think your fold equity is something around 0, and u are now looking to go either to a coinflip, or to a disastrous 80-20, let this one go.
