Poker Stars $50+$5 No Limit Hold'em Tournament – t1500/t3000 Blinds + t300 – 7 players

UTG+1: BB = 39.7, t119042
Hero (MP): BB = 34.3, t102979
CO: BB = 12.9, t38607
BTN: BB = 9.6, t28884
SB: BB = 24.3, t73023
BB: BB = 11.0, t33031
UTG: BB = 54.4, t163090

Pre Flop: (t6600) Hero is MP with 8 of spades 8 of hearts
2 folds, Hero raises to t6000, 2 folds, SB calls t4500, 1 fold

Flop: (t17100) 7 of clubs 6 of diamonds 9 of hearts (2 players)
SB bets t6000, Hero ?

Villain is decent, but not great.

Would you raise get it in here or call down?

If we raise here and he shoves, I call but im not loving it because we are down to 10bbs if we lose.

I like a call down because we will probably win any way and if not, we get off cheaper and have a stack we can come back with.

What is his donk range here?

Stats would also help narrowing down range here. If he is solid and tight and otherwise good I think he is trying to induce a raise to shove over (sets, TT, occational twopair+98s), so if I've seen him play good I will call and proceed the tunr with caution here. If he is bad i think a raise is in order, for value and to protect and because I'm raising donk bets with air against bad players decent procent of the time.
