Not calling means you hate money.

Unless that means he has only played AA and shown it down 5 times you have to call.

Actually you have to call anyway.

triple up and cripple the big boys, or be very disappointed. this is a go with your gut situation.

But if you actually decide to fold, which most people will say EWWW horrible fold, you will surely ITM because
A: UTG busts and button gets monster lead
B: UTG doubles up and button is crippled which means its an easy call on ur bb when he shoves on his button again.

That's just food for thought though. I would say [censored] it and call

I agree that a call here is necessary, but what if it were QQ? JJ or less seems like an easy fold here, but I am not sure what I would do with Queens.

with QQ? I would say F u, and call too haha...theres a lot of reward for this risk, cuz if you win youre chipleader, and if you're ahead PF, then the 2 all ins have each others outs AK AJ KQ KJ JJ etc etc

This isn't an instacall like everyone is suggesting. But, we don't have enough information to help you.

What are your reads and what does the other stack that you haven't mention have left behind?

If you are playing for first place, call.
If you are playing for third place, fold.
