UTG is quite short. If you call, he will be all-in on the flop anyway. If he had a really premium hand, he would have pushed himself after your reraise. So I'd push here before he can see a flop. Against a shortie, your hand is certainly big enough.

BTW: the converter knows a 2+2-format. please use it, it looks nicer.
