TT 3way pot

To call or not to call?

It concerns a $15 buy-in mtt and the MP 3better has a very tight range, making a call a coin flip at best.
The SB is very loose (that 37vpip is over 100 hands played in this mtt)

In general I find it hard to play small pocket pairs in 3way pots.

I would gladly hear your thoughts about this spot, thanks!

With in mind the 3bet shover is tight and not sure if the SB knows this as well. The SB could adjust to this and than you have a easy fold with TT against 2 all-inns. I don't think it's worth it to gamble against 2 all-inns or this is a bounty tournament.

Cheers,

(not my BI-Level yet, so keep that in mind)

Even if 3better is a Reg and more on the thighter side, I would still make the call. 3better is shoving 88+, no? If u think it's rather JJ+ u should fold; but if u consider SB as deadmoney (or 50% of the time = deadmoney) it would be a Call for me

Thanks for the remarks guys.
And it seems that people have different opinions on these kind of spots, which is the reason I post it.

MP turned out to have pocket 66, which makes his shove kinda weak and what I would consider a leak in his/her play...
SB had AQo, so he woke up with a decent hand that he decided to shove.

I ended up folding the hand and.... Shipping the tournament :f_biggrin:
For me these kind of spots are crucial in the itm phase of a mtt, to built a decent stack to survive and get to the final table...
