I am clueless what to do in that spot. I try to look at it in HRC but it can't take so far. lol

So what to do? Can I call or it is good to fold it? I don't like too much calling here, because UTG open and UTG+1 3bet shove for 36bb.
Probably he doesn't do it with AA or KK. Those hands I expect to 3bet NAI. So most likely we are against AQ+, 99-QQ. Against that range we probably should call. But then another opponent call. He have only 8bb so he is not probably very strong. But those are all early positions and I rather fold here and call with QQ+. I don't like calling with AK in that spot, because I will be behind most of the time in at least 3-way pot.

I really wanna hear what you have to say about that spot.

GL at tables!

I don’t think the MP1 call makes too much different with in mind that you win still a lot more chips if you win only against the UTG+1 player. Also it’s interesting to know how aggressive the original raiser (UTG player) is, but he should call extreme tight if you shove here. Read less I expect you are in front against the over shove range of the UTG+1 player and that would be a the biggest reason for me to call JJ here, but it’s close for sure.

Indeed, the short-stack doesn't make a big difference. I'd probably find a call here vs a re-shove range of 88+,AJs+,AQo+ from the UTG+1 and also expect the UTG-Player being nutted if he calls here. The only situation in which I'd find a fold here is if the initial openraiser happens to be a nit
