Default $2.75 NLTRN tough call vs. possible tiltmonkey

Villain was reraising %8.33 out of the BB (I never limp my SB HU). I doubled through him on the previous hand, so there was a definite possibility of him tilting.
I decided I was probably behind a medium PP and added some EV considering the possibility of this being a monkey-tilt move by villain.
Do you guys routinely make this call? Never make this call?
Converters being a problem so I'll do this by hand:

NLDONKAMENT $2.50 + $0.25
Hero: 1260
Villain 740

Blinds 5/10

Holecards: HERO A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

HERO: posts SB of 5. Villain posts BB of 10. Hero <font color="red">raises to 30</font>. Villain <font color="red">reraises 710 ALLIN </font>. Hero <font color="#666666"> Calls 710 </font>

Although this is just the beginning of the tourney I would make this call everytime. In any case, was he on monkey tilt or not, I would exclude monster hands that severely cripple you(AA,KK,QQ)from his range. I believe that with the hands that beat you he'd try to get a call with.

Wow, you're actually pretty deep (what site is this on?). But I'd probably still always call this, especially given the circumstances and the fact that it's a 2.75 game (people are really bad...).

Yes, we are deep. If you're an ROI-whore like me you will like playing on Everest. All donkaments start at 100BBS and the blinds go up every 10 minutes. The blind-up increments are small:
Starting 1000

5-10
10-20
15-30
20-40
30-60
50-100
75-150 etc... you get the idea. Basically you're getting ALOT of poker. For their large buyin MTT's you start with 1500 and the blind levels are extended to at least 15mins, maybe more, can't remember right now.
UB has a slower structure, but, F-UB.
