Call or Fold ?

$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
6 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
Hero ($99.80)
UTG+1 ($70.35)
CO ($15.43)
BTN ($103.42)
SB ($104.20)
BB ($15.80)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 6 players) Hero is UTG

Hero raises to $1.50, UTG+1 raises to $4.95, CO goes all-in $15.43, 2 folds, BB calls $14.93, Hero calls $13.93, UTG+1 goes all-in $70.35, BB goes all-in $0.37, Hero ?

The pot is 122.21 and its 54.92 for me to call.

Player notes BB and SB both playing 40/30 ish and been spewing chips since I sat down around 4 orbits ago. UTG+1 seems a semi decent player. Has been 3 betting me and I have yet to see any showdowns. playing a 25/21 over 50ish hands.

Easy fold ?

Instict says an easy fold. TT isn't going to hold up often against 3 other players. Heck AA does even't hold up that often in scenarios like this.

Preflop you are most likely ahead of the two short stacks but one of them most likely has a minimum of overs on you, the other could have a small pocket pair. UTG+1 I give credite for JJ+. If anything you are racing.

I just don't see how you can call here even with the pot odds though :\ Will have to let me know how it turns out.

Dubs, thanks for the reply. I was waiting with Hope that someone would find a reason this could be a call.

The fact is I called for the wrong reasons.

Firstly I was multitabling. I tried 8 tabling 6max which i had not done before and was having reduced time to think about decisions.

Secondly i put everyone on AK, blocking each others outs with shorties also having a range including low pp's and 2:1 looked good.

I forgot to notice semi decent player sees my UTG raise and reraises with other to act behind him. Then willing to commit his whole stack, another 140bb.

Strong move + Strong move > TT

Yet again I kick myself in the head for making such a stupid move.

UTG+1 had KK
CO had AA
BB had 66

GG me.
