SB is a solid player. My read is that he would push a very big range here.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

CO (t750)
Button (t1590)
SB (t1230)
Hero (t675)
UTG (t1575)
MP (t2180)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, 7/images/graemlins/club.gif.
4 folds, SB pushes, Hero calls

I don't think so.

You lose fold equity if you fold here, so you're either going to race now for T1400, or race later for T900. I think you should go ahead and call now.

I would call but it is probably pretty close. Looking at some ICM #s it is really close if he is moving with any A-J and any pair. You are getting like 1.6:1 and you have to take a stand sometime before you lose all FE. Against a random player I would fold since I fear that he would only do this with a better hand, but this guy seems like he will be pushing enough worse hands to make it a call. I guess it also depends when the blinds move up (like if they do next hand I would be more inclined to call here).

He had K5o, which indicates a pretty wide range.
