Online tournament, blinds 200/400 25 ante. You open raise KQo from one behind the cutoff to 1200 with your 15k stack. The button re-raises all in for 9,800 total. Button has been aggressive to this point, can you think about calling?

easy fold IMO. Aggressive or not, so long as he's sober you're pretty much looking at a coinflip at best.

Of course I'd think about it. I'm getting 1.4 to 1 odds. He's been aggressive. But his range has to be pretty huge to make this +EV. Something along the lines of 66+,A4s+,K8s+,Q9s+,J9s+,T9s,A9o+,KTo+,QTo+. That's a pretty big range which would lead me to fold.
Your stack is too deep to call. You're hoping to call and find yourself in a coin flip?
fold.. KQ is tough to play as it is, after a raise you could find yourself dominate or coin-flip... but domination is definitely something you want to avoid at all costs.

Reason I ask is this hand happened between me and Gavin Griffin. I was the button pusher and had 22. Gavin called me with KQ which I didn't understand. Maybe I had more of a crazy/aggressive image than I thought.
Gavin is a regular here. Maybe he can tell you why he called. My guess is he had a read on you that said he was good there against your range. Imagine that.
