Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: t50/t100
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t802
UTG+1: t1675
CO: t552
Button: t1980
SB: t2448
Hero: t2543

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with
UTG raises all-in t802, UTG+1 raises all-in t1675, 3 folds, Hero ???

Obviously UTG has a huge range being so short. But UTG+1 was instantly all-in. Should I call here hoping for Ax against AX and they have each others outs? Or that I'm up against a low pp and Ax? Must admit I haven't being paying a lot of attention 'cause I'm watching the football so take this as readless.
The whores and politicians will look up and shout "save us!"

And I will whisper "no"

Instamuck. You are likely coin flipping against two hands for most of your stack and you very well could be dominated by one of them. I'd probably fold everything but QQ+ here.

Going as readless on the table, I would fold.

I think TT is just too weak to play for that much of your stack against two opponents. They could have lower PP but I wouldn't think so. I'd figure UTG+1 to have a pretty strong hand here trying to isolate against the rest of the table from that early position. Your a coin flip against any big A and they could both have overcards so against 2 shared (like AK) 3 (AK/AQ) or 4 overcards (AK,QJ) what are you then? -4 given that UTG range is anything being so short - also throw in any PP lower and higher than yours.

Fold.

I can see a variety of hands from the first shove, Ax, KJ+, decent suited connectors, any pair... but the second shove indicates strength, the sort of range I'd expect TT to be in the middle of at best (AK, AQ, AA-77)... and then facing the other all-in as well that could be anything from desperation marginal crap to AA...

... easy fold.

Quick EDIT: My calling/overshove range here is right alongside AK's ^^^^^^^^^^^^.

At first I thought this was a chip equity coinflip, with about 35% chance of beating both and 20% chance of beating UTG+1 but losing to UTG but that turns out to be a significant money loser, only returning 1167 for the 1525 commitment.
