Any reads on the BB? Seems pretty tight with that chip count.

Standard raise from EP and an over the top...looks like chances are this is gonna be a coin flip. Call is probably the right move but a fold isn't a terrible move as it saves you from having to gamble this early in the tourney. Obviously AA and KK are possibilies.

I'd probably call then get pissed at myself when BB showed KK and go on massive tilt.

Folding is terrible... you surely have enough equity vs his range for this to be a call every time.

the raise to 250 instead of 300 or 400 preflop only increases his pushing range I am more than happy to instacall here

I didn't have any reads on the guy, forgot to put that in my post. Also, it was 4th level, not 3rd.

Anyway, I called and he had QQ and I won the flip. This was the absolute biggest hand I expected him to show up with here.

Thanks for the comments.

I really didn't think he'd show up w/ AA or KK. I think you lose some value by pushing vs. just calling.
