thanks for the advice guys.

and acehole, as to your question, it depends on what the other cards on the flop are. is there a straight or flush possibility one the board? if not you probably have the best hand with top pair, top kicker. its possible that someone has hit two pair or a set but you have to take a chance somtimes. Also, you have to consider why the person is going all in. If the pot is not that large and someone goes all in it probably means that their hand is weak and they do not want anyone to call. they may also be worried that if they make a  small bet they will be reraised and have to fold. If they had a strong hand they would check or bet a smaller amount in the hopes that people will stay in the hand so they can extract more chips. an overbet indicates weakness in which case your kings are probably good. the one thing you have to take into consideration is that they might have a hand but be scared by the cards on the flop. this would occur if their are two suited cards or connectors. your opponent might be making a large bet to keep people from staying in the pot on a draw. still an all in bet is rather extreme. chances are they have a weak hand an are trying to steal an early pot by taking advantage of the fact that people dont want to risk all of their chips early in a tourny. i say call 9 times out of 10 in that situation. its always nice to start a tournament with a double up.

if anyone disagrees with my reasoning please respond.
