Default any thoughts on this play?

Does anyone else find this an unusual play? I find it strange because MP2 player is a solid player with consistent wins totaling several 100K and BB daily regular in the mtt.
With the MP2's M21 and the BB's M40 it just doesn't make sense to me. Is there an argument here that either move could be cEV motivated?

$100Rebuy/after rebuy period

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) internettexasholdem.com

SB (t6850)
BB (t12085)
UTG (t28820)
UTG+1 (t29155)
MP1 (t6075)
MP2 (t6940)
CO (t7405)
Button (t35315)

Preflop:
3 folds, MP2 raises to t600, 3 folds, BB raises to t12060, MP2 calls t6315 (All-In).

Flop: (t19125) Kh, 7s, 9h (2 players, 1 all-in)

Turn: (t19125) 2d (2 players, 1 all-in)

River: (t19125) 7h (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: t19125

Results below:
BB has Qh Kd (two pair, kings and sevens).
MP2 has Ac Qs (one pair, sevens).
Outcome: BB wins t19125.

Looks pretty standard to me. The 109s, most of those players know each other...

Ranges are pretty well defined, and when it comes down to stackracin', they just takin' guesses.

As you said, their db's have solid, winning records, right?

Looks [censored]' fine to me.

Most likely a read the players have on each other. The $109r's get a similar lineup every day so most of the players have probably played a lot with each other.

I guess there's a small chance there could be collusion, but who knows. My guess would be that there is a history between these two players, etc.
