if you want to get out of 7th or 8th place, this is a shove.

Tournament payouts are top-heavy, and in order to get to the top you're going to have to gamble a bit. MP only has 10BB, and so does not have the luxury of waiting around for AA or KK to get his chips in. So, you are crushing his range. The fact that he didn't just open push is a little scary, but at this level it may just mean that he's really bad and doesn't understand stack math.

Ship it in and fist pump.
