Buyin $300 Live tournament
7 handed, blind 200/400 ante 50
MP (50bb) raise 1000, (LAG but definitely a thinking player)
Hero (38bb) CO call with TT (My image was TAG on the table)
BB (90+Bb) call ( Consider a maniac defend blind prob 70-80%)
Flop 2x3x4x rainbow
BB donk 400 into 3k+ pot
MP call 400
Hero raise 3.2k
BB tank and folded, MP SHOVE
I folded because I think ive been trapped. MP didn’t show but told me he had JJ

What does MP mean? So how many players were to left to act after him?

He must mean after UTG folded so there were still 5 players to act, HJ, CO, BU, SB, and the BB.
I think this is a good fold, and I believe he was much stronger than JJ on this board because he just called the BB's donk bet. For him to call a donk lead and then shove over top a raised flop bet on a 3 to a straight board doesn't sound right, wouldn't he raise the donk bet to try and get the pot heads up and not risk it going multi way to the turn with an overpair? It's possible he somehow read your hand for what it was and then decided to shove and protect his overpair after BB folded, but unless he's really that good I think you were beat on the flop and thus made a good fold. But yeah curious to see what others think of MP's play.
