That is such a dry board. What can he possibly be representing? A set? That's a horrible move for a set. I bet he has AK and you were ahead the whole time. I call and rebuy if I lose. BTW I make this move whether it is a $10 online tournament or a $1650 WSOP regional or what have you. Maybe I can find a fold if this is the actual WSOP and I really really don't want to get eliminated this early. Even if he has something utterly bizarre like 2 pair, it has to be with something like K-6, which is easy to counterfeit. In order to be behind he has to have a set specifically. I just don't see your opponent being ahead greater than 50% of the time here.
I would be choosing bigger sizing preflop & never folding against fish on the flop. I don't he is just check/shoving his sets here.
A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.

Yeah in that case, I would call. It is basically a low stakes tournament by live standards and he is an unknown.
Overshoving with a set here is clearly not the standard play, but it doesnt seem bad if you think a guy will call with AA and probably AK (for a almost guaranteed chop) as well. Your range does look weighted towards big hands of which only 1 beats a set. If he had a set, he just happened to pick the one guy that could lay down AA and AK. Personally, I would have called him but snap folded to a guy like Ed Miller.
If he did this with AK (which is more likely since he is a random), then his play was way worse.

My reasoning behind the fold was that there hardly ever is an overshove on the network without the stone cold nuts.
But as Wizard says he might be/probably was “trapping” with AK. Though a few hands earlier, guy on my left limp call/check call/check called a flopped KKK on a rainbow non-connected board. So this probably was doing my head in. Should’ve called and be doubled or be done with it.
Cheers guys!
