Early in a $5 Tournament, so no info on Villain, but it's still in the rebuy period so there's a lot of people calling and raising with very weak hands.

Is this a snap call every time? Couldn't see why an opp with a K or a 3 would shove here and risk me folding, my assumption was that he wanted me to fold and probably had nothing.

IPoker, $4.55 Buy-in (15/30 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players

Preflop sizing is good. In general I would cbet way smaller or go for check-call on flop. It's extremely dry flop so no need to cbet so huge. Also more likely villain would try to outplay you versus smaller cbet.

Not playing rebuy mtts but if we can expect unknown villain to spew it off often enough then it's ok to bet-call. Problem is that our hand should be pure bluff catcher in spot where villain should not really bluff. We have shown quite a bit strength raising preflop out of position versus so many limpers. Your logic is valid in that raising makes little sense for him, but I would not be that suprised to see some Kx. Often recreational players look their own hand and if it looks good they might go for raise. Not thinking that much of flop structure or anything else.
