Default Definite call here right? Early stages of MTT. BB special.

Very early stages Stars small buyin. Limp in BB w/ 27o w/ 4 other callers. Flop 2-7-A. On a $150 pot MP bets $200. I raise to $400, he instacalls all in.

Do you think he probably has Ax?

Sorry I should have specified. This is literally the 2nd hand of the tourney. Everyone has approx 1500 blinds 15/30

Since it is low buy in, chances are about 90 percent that he has A-10, no way you can fold this in these low buy ins on stars. Turns out your beat that sucks, but way too otfen it means "hey, I have an ace, its the nuts"

Sounds like you check-raised out of the BB, and MP still went all-in? I think he has AJ or better, and cross your fingers that your bottom 2pair holds up and call.

Your play sounds fine to me. Like everyone has said, the average low buyin player in the early levels sucks, and because you are only 2 hands in you have to assume that the villain is a complete donk. Even if he isn't terrible he still probably plays it the same way with AJ or AQ and you just gotta hope your hand holds up. You are ahead way too much here to fold.
