Hi guys, this is a live 1,5k FO event in Europe with 360 players, national poker open.
Starting chips are 10000, 45 minute levels, blinds are 25/50. Second hand of the tourney.
Villain in hand is a 35-40 year old guy, who i assume is a live regular, i heard him chatting with other players before the game began, that they are going to play nitty at the beginning and gain some information. I know one of his friends, and that guy plays pretty well, but do not have too much info on Villain.
I am a young guy, we never played together, i do not know , what he thinks from my game, he probably views me as a young internet pro, or a wealthy kid who just bought himself in.

Ok, blind are 25/50, stacks are 10k.
Very first hand of the tourney i am BB, UTG (50 year old guy) limps, Villain raises from utg UTG+1 to 450 , folded around to him, he shows AK suited and
says he do not likes to get this hand early in tourneys. LOL.

The very next hand i look down to two black Kings in the SB. Now Villain is UTG , raises to 275, folded around to me , i reraise to 950, he thinks for 7-8 seconds and calls. Flop comes Q94, i cbet 1400, he instaraises to 3600.

Calling is probably out of question oop , is this a standard shove?

Saw that exact same thing in a 300$ live event I played. Dude showed AQ after the kings tanked for 5 minutes and folded durning the first hand of the tourney.

his range is {AQ, AA, QQ}, too lazy to do the math but that's basically all he has ever.

This is clearly his range. I'd shove though because I think this guy would usually 4-bet the ace and the ace. Based on the other hand he seems like the type of dude who'd be scared that he wouldn't have the best hand on the flop anymore.
