Default Stars $150 FT Tough Spot

I haven't played with Sho0ter tonight but what I do know is that he used to play a lot of Party sngs back in the day with me and knowing just that means he's probably going to make some loose calls against the shortstacks here even if he has been playing solid. Am I wrong to assume this? Here's the spot:

P.S. Im sorry for not using that hand history program you guys use. It's late and I don't know what it's called.

i think this is both plus cev and money ev to call.

I think even tens is a pretty clear call, he has to be isolating with a push pretty wide here doesn't he?

You're way ahead of his range. He's nuts if he plays tighter than AJ+/77+ here, I would think he'd be isolating somewhat wider depending on the shortstack shover.

Are you asking an ICM question?

He'd have to be ridiculously tight for this to be a fold.

An additional reason to rejam is that AA/KK often flat calls the first shove hoping someone rejams.

This is a shove.

Shove. Even just watching his play tonight you could come up with enough grounds to make the call here. Made the right one (Assuming you did).
