AQ, OESD

I didn't know if I had any FE, but I thought this minraise on the flop was BS -- if he has top pair or a big draw he's shoving. (Frankly, with his stack size I have no idea what he's doing here but people are weird). Even if not bs, I'm gambling. You like?

I should add that my image was very bad at this table -- had been caught stealing in BvB and sucked out, shoved over a loose squeezer with AJ (he had KQo) and was very active recently because I had gotten a good run of cards. That makes me think his range is largely air or something that can't stand a reraise.

with his stack and the pot size, i don't think you should fold, either. i don't think you had fold equity though.

I would pot the flop, it looks like you are leaving room to fold so he might shove over with a hand like AT or 88 that maybe he would fold if he knew there was no FE. I even think open shoving is better than half pot although with a bad image I think a PSB is best.

If you think he'll stab at it it's a good spot for a CR also

as played auto shove, you are never folding on this flop whatever happens and calling may let him get away if you make a straight on the turn. Also once you bet/call on this board it's hard to think he'll continue with a bluff on the turn.

I'd play this the same way with KQ spades but I guess balancing isn't that important in MTTs.

AT, 88 are exactly the hands I put him on. He folded -- as I said, people are weird.
