~$300 live tournament with 26 entries. 10k in starting chips and 4 prizes.
12 left so avg is 22k.
6 players, 500/1000 (no ante)
Hero (21k) raises to 2200 UTG with XX and is only called by BB (16k)
Flop comes 6
6
2
Without much hesitation she shoves (about 3x pot), what do you do with?
a. K Q
b: 7 7
c: A K
d: Q J
e: 3 3
Hero has a been pretty active, mostly because of good cards. Villian seems to play a pretty solid game overall.

my actual holding was Q J and I was prepered to raise over a smaller bet or probably bet/call if checked to. when she put all her chips in I dont know what happened and did a terrible call.
she had A 3 and turn and river blanked.
I am not a big fan of big overbets like these in general but I really liked her play since it takes away the move from me and she is almost never in very bad shape when called etc.

Edit: I just checked the OP again and she is not that deep relative to pot size, so not terrible for here although I still dont like it

her line would be terrible with any hand except for Adxd, KdQd, KdJd, QdJd (in this case it would just be bad). let's add anyway to her range 6 combinations of PPs above 6 because we can not really exclude a PP with certainty. So her range might be something like 88, AdQd, AdJd, AdTd, Ad9d, KdQd, KdJd, QdJd. Against this range you have the following equities:
a) 39%
b) 32%
c) 37%
d) 41%
e) 31%
You need approximately 43% equity for a call to be profitable, so I would fold all 5 hands

BTW I saw Mike Matusow make a very similar move at the FTOPS.
blinds 40/80
UTG + 1 calls, MP calls, SB call, BB (Matusow) raises to 400, 1 fold, MP calls, 1 fold
flop (t960): 7
4 4Both have ~4.2k behind and Matusow moves allin
MP calls and Matusow shows A
QMP shows 4
4
It's on youtube here but the commentator is a bit of a db imo
