Ugh. Depending on how I was feeling I would either shove or fold.
I would only consider a call here if I felt like giving up the chips (with a -cEV call for set value) didn't effect my ability to play in the tournament. Here I feel like calling of 1K in chips and then check/folding the flop really hampers your ability to play when you miss. So I think I'd push if I was tired. If I wasn't tired I'd probably just fold here. |

honestly i didnt even think about shoving, since i feel like im almost never ahead there, esp in a micro

I tend to assume big stacks early in micros are lagtards who have been lucky thus far. His range is probably wider than you think, readless. Given those two assumptions, your equity when you shove isn't that bad in this spot. |

perhaps, but i figure if hes a lagtard he wuold have done a bigger raise with somethin like AK/AQ esp in the micros? coldcaller, figured some sort of pair or maybe AK, but coulda been wider since he wasnt that good...

just fold, this really isn't that close and anything else is overthinking
