2 villains so I haven't included stats & only 15 hands in but assume fairly standard TAG players.

full tilt poker No-Limit Hold'em, 1.2 Tournament, 15/30 Blinds (8 handed) - Full Tilt Poker Hand Converter from HandHistoryConverter.com

BB (t1485)
UTG (t1995)
UTG+1 (t1695)
Hero (MP1) (t1440)
MP2 (t1455)
CO (t2445)
Button (t1545)
SB (t1440)

Hero's M: 32.00

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A

UTG calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, Hero bets t150, 5 folds, UTG calls t120, UTG+1 calls t120

Flop: (t495) 2

UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets t300, UTG raises to t1845 (All-In), UTG+1 calls t1545 (All-In),

My thoughts, most of the range these people will limp call with is small pocket pairs, so a 259 flop seems somewhat scary. I don't really see how I can be beating both even if I am one.

I think I fold here, but I wanted to point out one not-so-nit picky thing:
but assume fairly standard TAG players....

UTG calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, Hero bets t150, 5 folds, UTG calls t120, UTG+1 calls t120
If you think they're both TAGs when they limp/call, you're obviously not reading your opponents right. More likely these are loose/stupid fish.

I'm was more kind of stating just assume they're average as I didn't really have any real reads, but for a $1 S&G, I think people limp calling with small/medium PPs is standard, hence raising that amount becauser you're likely to get a call.

I doubt someone's going to check-raise you all in on a flush or straight draw, but weirder things have happened in the $1 SnGs. Maybe a set, but I've seen it happen that the check raiser has like K9 or J9, tough call against 2 players tho.

Yeah I think, though you gotta hate laying AA on these donkaments, i can call one player hoping for A9 or something but chances of beating two? I think a fold is the only option.
