What's the situation? MTT? SNG? Payouts? Bubble? Does UTG limp a lot? Is he loose? Trappy?

Should I go on?

I have no idea about UTG I have played about 4 hands with him, I just got moved. We are in the 3r on stars, and the cash is still 200-300 places away.

First-in, maybe; but I don't like that move when the big stack has already limped in and there are still 3 players after you to act. Your M is down to about 6 so things are getting pretty tight, but I don't think you're desperate enough yet for this move.

His effective M is more like 3. I'd go for it myself, but ISAP.

Without a read on utg, and being at a new table, I would be inclined to fold and wait for first in. It's close, but I'd rather push with ATC with fiv.

Why is it five handed? Is this a short handed tourney?

With no read on UTG, I think that I would fold here and wait for first in vigorish. It's close though and I don't hate pushing either.

No I am pretty sure that is a converter screw up.
