Default Heavy Preflop Action with K K

Live £200 Tournament

Built up my original starting stack of 5000 up to about 5800.

58 Runners Blinds at second level 50/100 50 players remaining.

I have been playing just standard tight game so far picked up two medium sized pots.

Dealt To Hero
K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] k [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

UTG Limps
Player 2 Raises to 500
Player 3 passes
Hero - raises to 1500
Player 5 insta pushes all in for 4500 - Player is for want of a nicer phrase a pretty big fish...I put him on a range of here of JJ - AA plus AK AQ AJ

Folds round to PLayer 2 who instacalls. Player 2 hasn't really been heavily involved in a pot up to know ( about 40 mins into tourney)

Hero???

possible tight ranges

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 45.906% 43.96% 01.95% 719335 31826.00 { KdKh }
Hand 1: 33.117% 30.59% 02.52% 500586 41311.50 { QQ+, AKs, AKo }
Hand 2: 20.976% 19.70% 01.27% 322392 20846.50 { JJ+, AJs+, AJo+ }

------------- equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 36.034% 33.03% 03.01% 1659692 151096.17 { KdKh }
Hand 1: 41.782% 38.51% 03.27% 1935228 164421.67 { QQ+ }
Hand 2: 22.184% 21.02% 01.16% 1056523 58276.67 { JJ+, AJs+, AJo+ }

As you can see, even if his range is as tight as QQ - AA, you should call. I dont' think you can read much into the instacall. Personally, with AA, I might pretend to be distraught and slowly put the chips in, hoping to get an overcall.
