I also play these tournaments. I like calling here because you have position and hope on a low flop or set. After the 3bet a lot of fish shove if they think there hand is good and i think you can wait for a better spot to get it in. Most of these time you are going to be up against broadway hands or big pairs.

The approach to early SNG play is to play tight, and try to never risk your entire stack early on without a premium hand KK+.

As AbelHans said you should just call here and see what the flop brings for you.

Good luck !

3bet shoving is way too much for so many big blinds, but if the original raiser is a complete fish 3betting like this isn’t bad. Then you need to face the consequents if he 4bet shoves and then you need to call as well. Especially if he can shove with weaker pairs.
