SB 82/12 3bet 20% - 17 hands
BU 22/14 3bet 12.5% - 128 hands

IIRC at this point the SB had played 100% of hands

I was a little worried that if the BU calls I am probably crushed, but I think he folds a lot of the time here anyway. I decided to shove as I think that a lot of the SB's range will include weak Ax hands, but seeing as the blinds are still so small am I just better off folding and keeping my decent stack?

Poker Stars, $3.11 Buy-in (10/20 blinds, 3 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: 708 (35.4 bb)
BB: 1,485 (74.3 bb)
UTG+1: 1,642 (82.1 bb)
UTG+2: 605 (30.3 bb)
Hero (MP1): 1,475 (73.8 bb)
MP2: 1,659 (83 bb)
MP3: 2,682 (134.1 bb)
CO: 1,455 (72.8 bb)
BTN: 1,789 (89.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with T T
UTG+1 calls 20, UTG+2 calls 20, Hero raises to 88, 3 folds, BTN calls 88, SB raises to 705 and is all-in, 3 folds, Hero raises to 1,472 and is all-in, BTN folds

Flop: (1,585) 2 3 Q (2 players, 2 are all-in)
Turn: (1,585) 5 (2 players, 2 are all-in)
River: (1,585) 8 (2 players, 2 are all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

I personally would fold here, just don't think it's good to play coin flips so early on the tournament, even tough he is a little bit short stacked.

It is just how I try to play early on, but the shove here semms just fine
