I don't play tournaments. Honestly, I just watched most of the 2013 wsop final table and wanted to play one. This was actually a lot of fun, I came to the table I'm at with .7BB left after my AA was cracked by JJ (all-in pre). I ended 31/667 with a little above average stack for most of the tournament, this table has unusually large stack sizes.

I don't know anything about the BB except I have him covered. The BTN has been limping then shoving on practically every flop he sees. I don't know much about UTG+2.

Is this an always shove? I felt if I shoved I would get at least one caller (maybe 3), but I also felt like I was ahead of everyone's range. Also, I'm getting 8.8:1 on my money if I just call, assuming the BB checks, which I expected he would, but with just 5BB left folding the flop to a miss just feels... dirty.

River: (34,670, 2 players) 5<font color='red'>♦</font>

BTN shows 8<font color='red'>♦</font> 6<font color='red'>♦</font> (Straight, Eight High) (Pre 40%, Flop 35%, Turn 23%)
Hero shows T<font color='black'>♠</font> K<font color='red'>♥</font> (High Card, King) (Pre 60%, Flop 65%, Turn 77%)
BTN wins 34,670


Also, I ended up being 27/21/5 with a Cbet of 60, which is pretty close to my cash game numbers (25/23/8 Cbet 84), is this normal for tournaments or should I try to see more flops? With the 2x raise I felt like I saw more flops from the BB, or from calling short stack shoves.

I think this is always +ev shove, because the pot is 11000 and you have 12460 behind, so you need like 30% to make this +ev, if you get just one caller and i dont think bb would call this two often, if there are bubble coming. And this is also freeroll where you can get called by that kinda hands, so shove is the right thing!;)

Shove. You need to try to get some chips, and shoving against two players who haven't shown any real strength is a decent opportunity, especially given the button has been limping nearly every hand, which gives him a very wide range.

With KT on the small blind you can only call and cheaply see the flop. If you hit something then you would be first with decision and you could go all in especially with one pair, but I don't know if it is the best option, probably the best option is all in pre flop for about ~5bb.
