This hand happened with 64 left in the hot $2.20, should I've called the CL shove bvb? What should be my calling range in this spot? The only info I have is that the villain is a mtt reg $300k up.

I think you can typically fold this. With you being on only 15 BB's, he must know that you're calling wide (with a hand such as K8), which to me indicates some sort of strength. It definitely doesn't show much strength though, as with a strong hand he obviously wants to induce more action, by making a smaller raise or even limping. This hand is right on the edge of my calling range here, so king 9 suited I would call, K10 off-suit would also usually be a call, and K8 off, i'm left with a real decision. I think he's typically doing this with any A2-A9, K8+, any 2 broadway, and 22-88. (A10+, 88+ etc. I think he would be trying to induce more action).
There are definitely strong arguments that point to a call here, and this is definitely a tough spot. nh.

Most important question is how deep are you payouts etc are you close to ft?

awkward stack size for calling i lean towards folding but would be happier calling anything under 10bb for sure

much prefer applying my own pressure with some wide shoves 1st in

You could call, but since it's deep in the tournament I think you call fold as well if you had 7-9 bbs must call, 9-12 good call, 12-15 could call or fold calling is profitable because he can shove so many things, but folding is reasonable if you think keeping this 15bbs for a better spot increases your overall EV on the tournament.

That regular player should be aggro and capped

I see his range as: 77-22,ATs-A2s,KTs-K2s,QTs-Q6s,J7s+,T7s+,97s+,86s+,76s,65s,ATo-A2o,KTo-K2o,QTo-Q7o,J8o+,T8o+,98o

K8o has 51,25%,

for me its call
