I call. Not calling a big raise from the BB though.

I would 3 bet it to 14000 usually but w/ UTG+1 stacks size you may be looking at an all-in 4 bet. Like Tom said, flat in this situation.

Flicking in a call is fine, we have nice implies odds

Yeah, this is how I played it, 3-bet (to 14k) folded to UTG+1 jam. Was thinking after the hand I didn't play it optimally with stack sizes.

I hate 3bettign here.
Nice little suited connector, big stack, small raise, I'm flatting. Early/Mid raise usually means something, even if it's a minraise. I don't really see this guy folding to a 3bet often enough to make it profitable, and we're out of position if he flats.

Just flat, hit big, and hope he donks off his chips with AK.
