Default Weak fold here?

A hand from 5R on stars.

Reads on UTG: very loose player — was min-raising a lot

Reds on MP2: none — nothing unusual so far .He was re-raising to isolate, but I was

afraid he might have AA,KK.

I cold call the re-raise ( and fold ???), but I think I should have pushed


PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 with t25 antes (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t8598)
UTG+1 (t28769)
MP1 (t58460)
MP2 (t41093)
MP3 (t20530)
CO (t26500)
Hero (t22075)
SB (t2700)
BB (t9455)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I'm either folding or pushing when it gets to me the first time. And thats 95% pushing, 5% folding based on a read.

That's what I usually do, but for some reason I decided to play it different.

i probably wouldve played this the same way..1st time around, its fold/call for me. my instincts say fold, but im probably calling for a set hoping utg+1 just calls; or if utg+1 folds, il take a stab at a non AK flop and see how villain reacts. if thats not the case (like in this hand w/ heavy action) its a clear fold after utg+1's re-raise and mp1's push. a push the 1st time around seems pretty reckless since we're only getting called by a better hand. i love deep stacks

Well, I folded the best hand. UTG had JJ and MP2 had 99 ….

Thanks for the feedback.
