I am folding this to reraise, if behind you are dead(verry likely that you are behind given action).if you are not behind you need to dodge at least half a deck.

does the fact that 2 of 3 are very short change anything?

[Hince]

KQ is definately in these guys range,but so is sets, 2 pair, flush draws, ect. There is too much money dead in this pot. And even if you are behind one of the shorties, you can still make money here.

I like your play here.

ok so 1 thumbs up and 1 thumbs down any more comments?

[Albert Moulton]

With everybody relatively short stacked, even UTG+1 who has 75, I think putting UTG+1 all in is fine. I don't think I'd fold here given the stack sizes. Even if MP3 has the nut straight, UTG+1 might pay you off in a side pot with 2-pair or a set. If UTG+1 has the nuts, it's still not that much of your stack for what will be a pretty big pot.

Any more posts?

You'll see 2p/set/flush draws/QJ/etc here alot. I think you played it fine.
