Well here is a thing, I was sure that I was ahead vs UTG open, the 2.09bb might be his standard open raises. I saw him open that in 4 senarios.. 3 of them he stacked off vs 10-15bb stacks. First time QJ, next time KQ and last time 66.. he folded once.
So I dont know if it is his standard opensize or if he would change the sizing if he is holding a premium hand.
anyways, preflop I was sure I am ahead vs his range.. but I dont know If I am happy to get it in there for 48bb ES. I was going to call AK in a hu flip.. but I didnt want to run it 3 handed.. I thought that one of us must hold an ATs+ or KQ.. thats reduce my chances to win the hand if it happens that one of them is holding a pp.
is it a correct fold here? I was basicly 3betting to get it in preflop.. but changed my mind when facing 2 all in.

Tricky spot for sure against 2 all-inns. I would most likely 3bet maximum 3x in position and for me is 6bb in total big enough. Even if we would call we doesn’t lose too much chips if we only win against the aggressive UTG player with the 7bb what we already invested. If he’s shoving with AQ+ and TT+ it’s already a profitable call without counting the shorter stack in the pot.

That’s nasty, but this was 1 of the best scenarios you could have.

I hate this spot, its better to have a pair in your position. As its likley one has AX and the other PP. Which means one of your outs againt the PP is gone.

Against this you gave 33% equity roughly.
I think its a fold as well as you don't get the odds.
I think its a call with TT up though for the same reasons.
