$ 100 live freezeout villan is lag has shown down some questionable hands, has big stack and is trying to push table around...my image is tight, i've played one hand so far. middle/early stages of tourney

Blinds 250/500

My stack - $6000
Villan's stack - 14,000

8 handed
folds to me in the c/o with 9h8s...
raise to 1500
villan calls 1500
pot is $3750

flop Qh10c6d
villan checks
i cbet 1500
villan raises all in

i'm gettin 2.75/1 on a call for my tourney life with 8 outs 2x

does anyone think a call is ok here? If I fold I'm short stacked but if I call and hit i'm one of the larger stacks.

I in fact called and hit a 7 on the turn and a j on the river, 2 of my outs for the straight and he showed down k 10 for one pair.

Betting half the pot here puts you in a very awkward spot. Either check behind on that flop or shove it in. I like a check behind because he might look us up with any pair or even ace high here. Plus we have position on him for the turn.

as played you have to call, but I think I am pushing or folding there preflop.
