This is an easy call in an MTT, IMO.
The CO flatcalled a raise and a reraise with KTs, so he must be a donk! Maybe it's just the stakes I play, and the mental gamboooolers at party, but there's no way I would lay this down.
Is the reason it is a call in an MTT because SnGs are about survival and MTTs are about accumulation?
We are talking about a $27. That's not to say that donks don't live there, but you will see more positional play with hands like KTs if people in lp feel like others are getting out of line. However, in turbo SNGs people should stray away from making a lot of plays. I could be wrong, but the push all in over a raise and a reraise is a sign to me that he has a big hand and doesn't want others in the hand. If others want to play, they will be playing for all of their chips.
SNGs are about survival and MTTs are about chip accumulation. In an MTT, you are getting the right price against their range to make this call. In an SNG you not only have to know if you are getting the right odds to call but you also have to think about your chip position in the tourney. If you call and lose you are out and you are sacrificing your chances to cash. Which in an SNG you want to money as often as possible.
MTTs are different because you have to make it to the FT or the top 3 to really walk away with a good profit. In order to get there you have to accumulate chips. Every time you open up a single table you want to try and cash ever time. Therefore, survival is key and early chip accumulation is less important because you can win by just getting to the bubble and taking advantage of it.
