Seat 2 is the button
Seat 3: Player3 ( 401 ) - VPIP: 31, PFR: 13, 3B: 11, AF: 1.2, Hands: 54
Seat 5: Player5 ( 2204 ) - VPIP: 48, PFR: 7, 3B: 0, AF: 1.4, Hands: 54

ICMizer says I should shove (3.5%) TT+,AK
once UTG calls should I just shove/fold here? in which case a fold it is

Pre-flop calling is already close against a player that’s opening so tight, but as played I would play the hand the same way. Another option would be to iso-shove the short stack after his shove, because UTG seems pretty passive as well and I’m not surprise he would fold a lot if w do that and we have decent equity against the range of the short stack.

Cheers,

I think it is not a good spot to isoshove against a passive with a narrow OR range without a special read that he folded at such spot before. I think if he called UTG AI he pretty much was ready to call your as well. I think you are most likely flipping against both SB and UTG range but I don't think it worth risking your tournament life yet
