If the UTG is a fish I'd be raising here for value to 50cents, my goal would be to isolate UTG+1 and bet big on Qxx or Kxx flops.

Personally, I would just call. However, I am quite the nit most of the time and I guess squeezing has to be more than ok.

The problem comes when we get called and miss most of the time, then we're oop vs either UTG who probably has us in trouble, or to a possible fish who we might feel obliged to start barreling against.

I just don't think this kind of play is necessary at $10nl. Keep pots small, look to make hands and play in a way that is exploitable, knowing you're not likely to be exploited by many.
