Home Advantage for Kiabuxxe

Austrian high stakes cash player Nikolaus "Kaibuxxe" Jedlicka just had a nice bit of home form with his tournament life at stake. He raised pre-flop in early position to 300 and was re-raised by the player to his left to 1,300. Kaibuxxe made the call and the flop came down {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

Nikolaus checked and his opponent bet out 1,500, which prompted Nikolaus to insta-shove all in for a total of 5,675. His opponent called almost before Jedlicka's chips were across the line:

{A-Spades}{8-Spades} for Kaibuxxe and {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for his opponent.

The turn brought the {6-Spades} giving Kaibuxxe the nut flush and he closed his eyes for the river which was a harmless {3-Diamonds}. Kaibuxxe doubled up on the hand, while his opponent was left with only 1,500 chips.

Although I like it if an Austrian goes deep but I don't know if I like this play. Calling a 1,300 re-raise OOP with A8s and a 7,000 stack? Guess he wants to accumulate chips early or go back to cash games.
