    IMHO...

    Hand 1: With UTG's stack, it doesn't make sense that he's trying to limp. You'll be in a tough spot if you loose, but I would probably play it the same way (I'm pretty aggressive though).

    Hand 2: I'd probably just call and look for a set or get out. You don't know what UTG is going to do and you wouldn't want to be all-in against both of them.

    Hand 1 - I'd want to have a read that UTG a) doesn't limp monsters and b) can find a fold after limping to shove here. I probably fold it, but it doesn't seem all that bad.

    Hand 2 - don't like this one with that action in front. Sure, you need to make a move soon but I think you're very likely behind MP2's range and you have little or no fold equity.

    1. what tai said.
    2. I fold 'cause I'm not set hunting for nearly 1/3 of my stack and MP2 isn't folding after sticking in 1/3 of his.

    I don't call with drawing hands when my stack is not big enough to make it worthwhile.. I recommend you do this too mate..

    BTW, I probably fold both of them because of the action upfront but hand 1 is not so bad..
