Is this first one bad...Villain was probably steaming a bit after taking a bb earlier with QQ. I also figured with my stack size, this was a good spot to double up or fire up another one. Does the UTG limper playing his first hand make this a clear fold?

No Limit Holdem Tournament
$10 + $1 Sit & Go
7 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG endsnow (1500)
UTG+1 lkb123 (1835)
MP Toni604 (905)
CO Hero (1165)
BTN Radio Two 32 (1175)
SB chris connon 79 (4600)
BB b377gc84 (2320)

Blinds: 30/60

Pre-flop: (90, 7 players) Hero is CO Eight of Diamonds Eight of Spades
endsnow calls 60, 1 fold, Toni604 goes all-in 905, Hero goes all-in 1,165

Villain here is an idiot; he four-bet preflop with 66 and sucked out on previous villain's QQ. I don't think he's folding often but I think he can definitely call with worse.

Edit: I don't know why, but the HH converter keeps messing this up. This wasn't on the bubble, it was six handed.

HU:

Would you just shove this preflop, or do you like the Go-and-Go?
I guess it's probably unnecessary. Also, should have three-bet bigger preflop? I usually fold marginal hands to three-bets this size but I notice players calling them pretty damn light.

88 hand - I'd fold this because of three reasons a) the fact that there are three players left to act after you including the two biggest stacks b) the UTG limper playing his first hand (though this isn't a big deal for me) and c) the fact that even though opp took a bad beat, I'd still give him credit for a hand that we're either flipping against or dominated by.

AQ hand - I play AQ like AK in this spot, so it's fine.

77 hand - I either just shove over preflop (even with relatively deep stacks) or make it 1400 to go preflop, call a shove over and shove flop if called. If you make it 1400 preflop then your flop shove is only just a bit more than a PSB.
