If the Q9 are clubs not spades I think this is great, as is there are just way too many hands you're behind here.

I don't get it, is this a question?

Yes you called off all your chips with a hand that is usually way behind.

I guess the question is range for CO who overlimps minbets a superdrawy flop then overshoves. I dont do this every day obv.

Range for CO overlimping in the first round of a low buy in tournament? Probably almost any 2, Ax (suited or off, better than your A4) is a very common holding here. You really can't call that shove unless you're ready to "fire up another one" if you lose, which is OK this early on IMO.

Even if there's no better hand he should play this way I can't see the call being anything but -EV

You seem to be conveniently ignoring UTG+1. What range to you put him on, flush draw as well? Or do you expect he'll just fold.
