UTG raises to t1600, 3 folds, CO calls t1600, 2 folds, Hero ????Is this a call? I'm getting like 6.5-1 to call, but I still don't know if I should. Thoughts?

You have ten BBs, this is either fold or jam.I don't know, i think you may be able to shove profitably here as there are antes in this level and the pot is pretty darn big, i'm skeptical though. I'll try and do some numbers with it tommorow when i can see.

Fold because UTG and CO are both shorties and have put in half their stacks already. There's no way they're folding here and you aren't really beating anything. If they both had stacks above 10,000 then I think a shove becomes much more arguable but they don't.

Any time a player minraises for half his stack late in a SnG from early position, that's a MASSIVE red flag. 97% of the time this is AA trying not to scare off action.*Edit: sorry, I realize it's not a SnG, but that doesn't really change anything.

Yep, you need to fold this. Even if utg doesn't have a monster (which he will alot of the time) neither are folding to a shove, and you're not hitting the flop hard enough often enough to call - I'm not even calling if everyone in the hand has 100bbs. Plus you can get roped into calling a flop bet (which will be a 1/3-1/2 pot bet) if you flop an 8 or something.
