I call. You're way ahead of his range and the short stack only needs to double up once and you're in a fight for 2nd. I wouldn't pass this up.

Re: ps 11: itm, can u fold jj from bb??
 

No way I'm getting of this hand. As dj said, your way ahead of his range + if you are going to fight for first, you will need those chips.

Hard to get away from but to be honest guys it's pretty marginal. Small blind is on life support.

Re: ps 11: itm, can u fold jj from bb??
 

I don't think it's that marginal. I'm sure we've all been in the situation where we're waiting out a short stack only to see them double up once or twice and all of a sudden we're the short stack. If he had less than 600 or if the blinds were about to go up, I might consider folding. Remember, getting one first and one third is better than getting 2 seconds. This is a perfect spot to be able to make a run at first.
