Interesting spot here. Opp's stats were 31/16 and he had been pretty aggressively shoving over raises once blinds got to like 75/150. He had not shown down any of these shove over hands.
I have run the ICM on this, but I thought I'd get some reactions from the crowd before posting it.

This happened to me just before and I assumed he was just defending his blind only to show QQ Had you been stealing his blind a bit previously? I think I probably call but I'm terrible at folding, hehe.

it seems like we should just shove if we will raise/fold

I was considering this, but since he wasn't the best player I was afraid of him making a retarded call with something like KTs which loses us both huge amounts of equity.

If you are willing to call his shove you are better off shoving yourself
As played I think I fold it, in this specific case I would probably raise a little less preflop (500 or so)
