You are a utg raiser. So he gives your raise not much respect. So he has a big hand here if villain is solid. Most of the times these donk raises mean that they have a big hand. I would lay it down in this spot. Your stack is healthy enough to play with.

Nh. I want to fold it preflop because he probably has a huge hand given that raise size, but can't fold getting 5-1. These tournaments are nice to play straightforwardly because of the structure imo, no need to get desperate with 10min. binds.
