i don't use huds, so the vpip/pfr doesn't mean anything to me.

with 12 bbs, this is a very easy call in what is very likely a pretty close equity spot where i'm likely slightly ahead/behind most ranges.  of course, if these are the 2 nittiest players at the table, then i can find a fold.  but, against majority of players, this is a pretty easy call.

with 12 bbs, i'm happy to get my money in low risk/high reward situations.  as a short stack that is nowhere near the final table, i'm not concerned about small money jumps and happy to take riskier lines to put myself in a much better position to run deep.  since i only have 12 bbs and i'm freerolling the mtt, and i'm in a likely a slightly ahead/behind equity spot preflop, then i have very little to lose calling here and a lot more to gain when my hand holds.

as far my opponent's ranges,  there aren't a lot of hands i'm worried about in this spot except qq-aa.  but, how much do i have to worry about in this spot? if they have qq-aa, oh well, unlucky me.  if i have aa, does it matter if i have jj here or kk? not at all.  but there are also a ton of hands 14 bbs is jamming utg1 and that co is rejamming that jj is ahead off. so, because of that, i except jj to be in a slight ahead/behind equity spot here and, again, i'm willing to risk it in the close equity spots as a short stack.

now, is calling here correct or not?  of the top of my head, i don't know.  i'm sure i could plug it somewhere and get a much better answer if it's a +ev/-ev/=ev spot.  but, looking at from a perspective of being in the moment, it's a clear call for me.
