Snap call and fist pump when he turns over a small pair or Ax

I don't think a call here is obvious or easy in any way. There is not enough evidence of bad tilting. The most common result would be a race and there is a good chance of 99 or TT. The Hero hasn't invested too much I dont think it is neccisary to risk your tournament life in a race

I would call, but I wouldn't fist pump.

EDIT: Misread the action, thought you were in much later position. I might fold.

I think the level headed thing to do is fold. Doesn't seem like a good spot to gamble for tournament life.

But in the heat of the moment I may call and call the guy a donkey for shoving with KJo after I lose.

i normally fold this nearly every time, its just the fact that he may be on tilt that would make me feel like im passing an edge

I don't think I flip here. I assume we are usualy flipping. You have a huge stack and plenty of opportunities to steal blinds and build a stack.
