I'm curious why he would make a that move so early in a tournament. He is not picking up very many chips and risking a rather drastic table image if found out.

I can answer from my standpoint that the few times I do such a thing is when I'm trying to feel out the play of the guy to my left. If I learn early (and cheaply) that he is weak, then this information can be invaluable later in the tournament when a soft BB can turn into a chip ATM.
