Default KK in 4-Table Home Tournament


What do you do here? (I am repeating from memory)

7-handed. 2 tables remain, 14 people left of a field of 32. Blinds are 4$/$8, with about 5 minutes left until $5/$10. Hero is biggest stack at table with around 300$ in chips. 2 Other people have big stacks at the other table, one with about 400$, one with about 320$. Most other people are around 180-220.

UTG: folds
AntiHero UTG+1: raises to 20$
fold
fold
Hero: raises to 70$ (KK)
fold
fold
AntiHero: pushes for 75$ more on top.

No real reads on this player.....everyone seems to be playing tight though. Easy hands to put him on would be AA KK or AK. I don't have a read on him as to whether he could lay down QQ.

Do I:

1) call? 75$ to win ~300$. I have kings. Hoping he does have QQ or AK. Am I hoping for AK?

2) fold? Put opponent on AA or AK. Figure at best he has AK, in which case I not in THAT great of shape. Especially when a loss would cripple me, with the blinds going up.


Comments on this situation appreciated....if I left something out, please let me know. I guess this is a classic tournament question: aggressively try to gather chips, or wait for a better situation.
