I have returned to live poker after 7 years away.

Live mtt 10 rebuy. , 60 runners. £750 for winner.

14  left, two tables. 3K- 1.5K blinds.  Have 26k chips.  35K average.

I'm SB.

UTG  20k seems like he's decided to make some moves over last few orbits.  Raises 8k.

Button  22K (good TAG scouser) long thinks and calls, the call seemed out of character.

Me 

I felt regardless of flop both would not release hand.

I am very interested in why you would take the action you would have done. My brain is so rusty.

Thanks.

Fold. The buton has aces. Why would he flat without a monster? Why would UTG raise for 40% of his stack without a monster for that matter?

If the button wasn't involved, it's a shove for me.  But with the button's flat call, I don't really fancy my 8's being any good - so fold.

I have returned to live poker after 7 years away.

I've just returned from a similar break from the game.

I would do a fold here and shove lots of pots that are unopened.

OK thanks for that, I was expecting SHOVE SHOVE SHOVE . I did fold. Raiser has  two spades,  Tag had called with  .

They missed board, which contained  a flopped . They were all in by end.

Maybe the TAG knew the call would fox me and lead me to fold, maybe he had spotted a tell that I had a pair? I had told the raiser on a previous orbit I would call raises with pairs.

Cheers for your input.
