UTG raises to 7 BB, you hold

You reriase to $4 (20BB)
Opp reraises All in, $22 or so.

id probably call bc you have flip odds.
edit: this just seems like hes trying to protect his mid-high pair (99-JJ) to me.

I'd fold, best you can hope for is a coinflip.
If he does have a pocket pair it's a coin flop, if he has AA/KK/QQ/AK he is way way ahead. Only way your ahead is if it's AJ or a random hand bluff.
I just dont think it's worth the call.
Your not pot commited.
Edit: OOPS! .. I forgot about the 4 man game... I'd call in 4 man... Jold in 10 man.
ps: I like to train the fish to come over the top anyway =)

Why the fuck does the question not mention a read at all? What do you know about UTG? It's 4 handed, it's not like you have lots of guys to keep track of or you're folding a whole hell of a lot!
This play is 90% read and 10% cards...

4 handed with a 50bb stack it's an automatic call
100bb stack... HMMM

This is becoming a funny thread.
I get stuck in 4-player games with friends from time to time and I hate it. In this hand, I'm the UTG guy, I'm holding AK, and I think opp made a Huge mistake calling the AI. "At best a coinflip" sums it up, I think. But I wonder if that's full-ring thinking?

For what it's worth, I auto-call Ripptyde in this spot, so I don't think it's an auto-fold.
This is a cash game, so you're no longer trying to avoid close gambles particularly when you might be getting the slight best of it. It really comes down to the range he'd push here and if you feel you need to stand up to him. Sounds like a pretty tame game, tipping me more toward mucking.

Completely read dependent, but i want to know that i'm going to be dominating him a significant portion of the time.
