With a decent read against the right kind of idiot I have no problem looking at a flop, but there is no need to get involved otherwise.Basically it's a fold unless you have a good reason not to.
what if he is a POW? The only problem in these turbo's is you really can't make "informational" bets because most of your stack will be in the pot by the time you get the info... what do you do if you hit an A on the flop? I have a decent amount of chips but I will be out of position for the whole hand.BLAH!!!

bolded part keeps me out of this pot. if utg recognized utg+1 as an 'idiot', he could be planning to go over the top of the anticipated raise.
