    could be trying to steal blinds. all in final table big over cards i think. usually those that get there chips in first in a all in , got the better hand. suggest fold

    Yes normally and also this tourney I made the instant call. He showed AK and won the flip, but shouldn't I consider ICM in a way? There are 4 really shortstacks.

    You have a really short stack too though. If you two had 30k and everyone else had 10k and you had pocket 2s then it would be different

    sadly you can't consider folding this with your stack and the strength of your hand.

    I would make this call all day - being at 5 BB his range could be very wide here as well. He needs a double as well just having 6 bb himself. 70% of the time or more you are ahead pre-flop and its not often you might get a better chance short stacked.
