The push seems standard to me or the original shover is a tight player. Another option that’s most likely a little bit better is to call only and fold if the BB is pushing. If BB is calling you can check it down unimproved.

Just to understand! As UTG2 player is a short stack he is probably shove with a widenning range, because of that hero com shove over?

Easy slam dunk shove if its bounty
Its close in regular mtt, I prefer folding SB and calling from BB.

We are pretty much pot commited at that point as calling Big blinds push gives us almost 2 to 1

I don’t think you are committed yet if BB shoves and the BB is most likely only pushing with better.
