Villain is 10/6 (80 hands). What's your plan here?

Full Tilt Poker $5 + $0.50 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t100/t200 Blinds - 6 players

UTG: t1285 6.42 BBs
MP: t4430 22.15 BBs
CO: t3665 18.32 BBs
BTN: t720 3.60 BBs
SB: t1020 5.10 BBs
Hero (BB): t2380 11.90 BBs

Pre Flop: (t300) Hero is BB with T

1 fold, MP raises to t600, 3 folds, Hero ???

Villain is 10/6, means yeah, his range is probably beats yours.

Fold is good.

QUESTION : As the blinds are at that 'not-insignificant' stage of the tournament, does anyone see this being a spot where villain is beginning to open up his range, putting his big stack to use, making a steal attempt? Tough to say, with him being 10/6 at this stage ... did he sit almost completely dormant through the earlier stages then catch a pulse once the blinds became larger?

FWIW : After considering the possibility of a re-steal for a few seconds, I probably fold here given his range and your stack size relative to SB, UTG and Button.

Fold. I shove QQ+ here because of the other opponents stack sizes.

Fold TT... Jacks looks close. QQ is a shove.
