Hi all, I barely have time to play these days but managed to get a few games in today. Should I fold here? What do overbet shoves like this usually mean to you seasoned sng veterans?

Early in the sng so reads are limited, villain has been fairly aggressive

welcome back!

1) fold pre-flop.

2) weird play by villain, in-game I feel like I'd snap by don't know if that's really optimal. It really depends on what range you put this villain on. If he's aggressive, then his range can easily be pretty wide and we should call. But it's hard to make that assessment early in the tournament, so maybe that's not so good.

We also have to remember that we have two players left to act behind us, which means that we should probably play a lot tighter, but I don't think that necessarily means we should fold.

fold pre for sure; if you think CO is light, shoving pre is better than calling.

barring that, not folding on this flop given size of pot but we're going to be behind here more often than not.
