Call/Fold??

You close the action which is good. He just sat down and is already pushing...which is good because it probably widens his range. Probably EV neutral to sl. EV+. I will usually call.

BTW, I'd rather play with a 30BB stack (20B better still) than an 78BB stack...reload

Omfg, call this in a heartbeat. I bet he has a worse A over 60% here.

LOL, yeah, if he just sat down with $16.61 it's probably all he has left. Easy call, his range has got to be pretty wide here.

I call a lot of the time in these spots. When shorties pull this they'll show up with Ax a lot and low - medium PP. If he had AA, KK, QQ, AK he generally wouldn't shove like this.
