6 max tourney and only like level 2 or 3, 170 odd runners
Only a few hands on this table and villian has shoved 3 of 5 hands without a call so has not had to show down.
Is this a hand to call or fold with:
a) being this early in the tourney
b) against a crazy player
c) just in general?
No Limit Hold'em Tournament T25/T50
Buy-in: $20+$2 USD Hold'em No Limit

BB – BB (T5,875)

Hero raises to T112, MP raises to T2,935 (all-in), 4 folds, Hero???

Almost always an easy fold. Note the play, and if he indeed is bad you're likely to outplay him or have a better hand next time he does the same move.
Maybe a call in the $82 HTMTT against a random if its B v blinds or sb v bb.

Its tempting to call. I think we are ahead of him here a lot. Question for me really comes down to how we feel at the time.
Merits for calling :
We are ahead of his range so it’s a +ev in my book.
Can’t hurt to double up and have a nice little stack early
Merits for folding :
We are flipping and rarely are we dominating against a worse Ax hand. Most likely he’s got a pocket pair KQs or two live cards and yes I’ve seen KK show up in this spot. Also mtts are not won early so we risk our tourney life early with no guarantee we go anywhere.
It really comes down to how much you value this tourney. Me personally I call and if I lose oh well I’m prolly in a few more and will just be loading up another one.

Definitely a fold.
Yes it is stupid to be pushing like this but you will be flipping for your tourney at best.
