Really tough to say without a read, this early in the tourney, and with such a low buy-in...

Since CO is early chip leader...

* Could be bullying
* Could be playing any two and hit two pair or set
* Could be donking

he was a maniac for sure. 1st hand of the tourney he called a PF AI bet from UTG with KJ. doubled up in that spot. the more i think about it i almost think i should have made the ridiculous overbet shove PF. i hate that play a lot, but at such low stakes it might even be +EV.....of course i am saying this after bubbling the money spot.
