Can I overcall here?

Wasn't sure what to do here in game... I kinda wanted to call but ended up folding, mainly to preserve the utility of my stack. But yea, curious to hear thoughts... both utg jam and rejam where active players, utg was loose, re jam seemed more tag/reggy... can I overcall here? or easy fold?

Thanks

I ran a similar 99 hand through HRC the other day. I’m still getting used to HRC but it seemed to prefer folding earlier in the tournament. Later in the tournament it was a call.

I’d folded the hand in game but was a little tilted over it, which is why I ran it in HRC.

So I think the correct play here would be based on your stage in the tourney. I’m guessing if it’s still early and you consider the button to be tight player you can fold and wait for a better spot.

gotcha yea i don't recall the exact cash line of this game, but smaller field tourney with between 27-45 paid typically, so maybe easier call in the money... and yea i figured at this point with this stack I could find less close of spots, as well as easier, or lower variance, ways to chip up at this stage, thanks!

Im not much into the math here but i would probably call. You are way ahead of the utg all in and i think the botton is jamming there with worst pairs than you, many overcads that you are flpping against and ocasionlly some dominated aces. Close one.

yea felt like it was close, maybe I could lean more towards taking this spot in a tougher game where raising my variance isnt so bad, but against this field I could find a better spot, thanks for input!
