Default $60: TT squeeze

UTG is a solid regular. Flat caller most likely sucks. I would normally probably only repush here w/ JJ+ AK if it wasn't for the caller. How's this?

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t50/t100
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1970
UTG+1: t2300
MP1: t1150
Hero: t1535
MP3: t1345
CO: t1475
Button: t930
SB: t1400
BB: t1395

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP2 with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to t300</font>, UTG+1 calls t300 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t450)</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t1535</font>

I'm gonna say no. I'd need a slightly better hand to do this.

As weak as it sounds we just cannot resteal here with the strength of a UTG raiser + a caller. Also calling is obv out of the question. Although in game I know I would have a very hard time laying this down.

in general TT is a fold vs a tight/solid UG raiser at this level, unless you have some notes that he opens really wide. so i fold, even with the extra 300.

I fold here. UTG raise from a solid player and call; 1010 sucks with no set odds.

UTG raise from solid player is always a stong hand. period

1010 does not beat his range

1010------&gt; muck

isn't the point of a squeeze that you are supposed to do it with ATC, as long as the situation is correct and you have a good read that both villains have weak hands?

Not that I'm saying that that means a squeeze is correct here, just that the fact that he has TT shouldn't make any difference.

I think you are confuzzled, as they say. Why do you assume an UTG raiser has a weak hand? Would you rather have TT or 72 if called? Either way, this is a fold.

This is pretty close actually.
Without the cold call it is a fold, but the coldcaller pretty much always has a worse hand and that added overlay makes it a lot closer. It depends on the read but the difference between opening something like TT+ AK and 77+ AJ are huge here.
