HERO....????

I would call. The only hands you are afraid of are AA/KK but unless he really mixes up his play, it doesn't seem to fit his style. If he has AK, you are still ahead on the coinflip and if lost, still have a decent stack. You are at least 4:1 on all other ranges.

I think this is a clear call. Even if we give him AA or KK 40% of the time (which I think is way too high), you are still priced in.

Even if you put him on a range that makes the call even money or a little worse, you are only risking a downgrade from 64Ms to 45Ms, which is a pretty similar standard of living. I think this is an example of exactly the kind of risk you want to take with a big stack.

The previous hand wouldn't really tell me much about his range on this hand, although I may be missing something.
