3E tourney, still a way off from the bubble
UTG 58/16 3bet 14% - 41 hands
SB 11/0 3bet 0 - 9 hands

I almost folded pre as it was an UTG 3X, but the pot odds were too tempting after SB calls as well
OTF, best to shove or just call?

We are dealing with a 3x raise of a loose passive player and a call of a short stack for almost half his stack. So I expect you are often dominated against both ranges and I would fold pre-flop this hand. As played you hit top pair and I don’t think you can fold anymore and I would iso shove here as well, but it’s a marginal spot for sure.

Cheers,
