Last 30 people alive in a very big tournament, like 700 people. Money starts to grow in 15 onwards. Winamax Poker - Tournament "UPPERCUT" buyIn: 9€ + 1€ level: 29.
I guess it was a mistake to call, which range should be ideal? Button 44/22 with just 9 hands.

Thanks

Winamax - 15000/30000 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (BB): 12.22 BB
UTG: 9.04 BB
CO: 36.48 BB
BTN: 30.21 BB
SB: 86.29 BB

5 players post ante of 0.12 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.08 BB) Hero has K♠ Q♣

fold, fold, BTN raises to 30.1 BB and is all-in, fold, Hero calls 11.1 BB and is all-in

Flop: (25.28 BB, 2 players) 2♥ 5♦ 5♣

Turn: (25.28 BB, 2 players) 8♣

River: (25.28 BB, 2 players) 2♦

Hero shows K♠ Q♣ (Two Pair, Fives and Twos)
(Pre 48%, Flop 29%, Turn 20%)
BTN shows 3♥ 3♦ (Two Pair, Fives and Threes)
(Pre 52%, Flop 71%, Turn 80%)
BTN wins 43.28 BB

I don't think it's a terrible call. Villains range seems capped. Villain shoves for 30bb effective with the big stack in the SB is really weird I think.

Read less I would fold, but if you think villain can shove with a wide range I wouldn't mind the call. Most of the time you flipping against a wide shoving range.

I think we run into small to medium pocket very very often here. These are sort of hands people tend to have with this sort of shove considering 30bb effective versus SB. Though I would not personally have any shoving range in BU shoes.

ICM is not big deal at this point so I would say call is slightly better than fold but fairly close. With KQs it would be mandatory call.

Yeah, I think villains range is capped and he doesn't have, at least, QQ+, AK+. Most likely hands are high cards or total shit.
Thanks

Easy call.
I hate how you played postflop. Did you even call for your One Time?
