Whats my line against this one trick pony?

    $20 STT - Blinds 100/200 - 7 Left

    MP Villian 2900
    SB 1300
    BB (me) 2200

    Villian has one move, all in. No flat calls, x times BB raises etc , just all in. Hes done it 7 or 8 times and no-ones looked him up yet, and the last 2 orbits on my BB.

    True to form, hes all in again but this time gets a call from the SB.
    I have Ad Kd

    Time to make a stand or bide my time?

    Thanks in advance for your thoughts

    nd

    It depends whether you're playing to win or make the money (then try win).
    If you're just playing for the win I think a call is good.
    If you're playing to make the money firstly - then I think you should fold. I think you'll find a better spot to get your stack in. Sounds like one of them could have a pair and the other could have Ax.

    All you saying this is a call are insane.
    Sure if you take odds, and math in to consideration you may have a clear call here but
    But above all you must consider you TL (tourney life) .
    All of you suggesting a call are obviously gamblers and I only saw a few card players amongst you suggesting a fold and waiting for a better spot.

    What *will* you call with? How likely are you to pick it up? How many hands left do you have to pick it up?

    I'm not sure how this is anything but a call. There's an 1800 chip side pot against a loon for a start!

    You could easily find SB with AT-AQ, KQ, KJ (as well as any pair of course). You dont have to hit against the loon, you are most likely ahead already.

    Tournament life comes into play when you have 250 times the BB and 300 players to get through yet with plenty of time to express your skill. Not when you have 10 times the blinds and 6 left. Now is the time to roll the bones and see if you are going to win this tournie because you wont fold your way into first.

    He's seemingly pushing with any two, and by your description everyone at the table will know he's pushing with any two. As such the SBs range is huge. I'd expect to be dominating the SB the vast majority of the time, at absolute worst raceing, and god knows what the pusher has but you're ahead more than likely anyway and are getting massive massive odds considering.
