I liked the flop but not the original raisers post flop bet. He went well over the pot and almost to 100% of his stack size. If I pushed over him I doubt he'd fold. Going back and looking at the hand I was surprised to see how much PT3 thought I was a favorite over 2 random cards. Well, how about 2 likely cards? That would be more useful. I've been trying to stay away from all-in or fold decisions (re-raising where it makes sense) but in this case calling and leaving them with money they have to push anyways seems silly. Would you have pushed all-in here?

Fold preflop. Both MP and Hijack are short stacked so you're not getting the implied odds you need to be calling here with a SC or small pair(even with the BTN).

As played I just shove and take my chances. If I lose it's negative reinforcement not to call the preflop bet the next time vs a shorty. :)

Yes i would definetly push here, however i don't think he will fold. There is also a chance that he is on a flush draw as well and because he has so little money behind he doesn't mind to risk it.

3bet or fold pre-flop. I really don't like the call. FWIW, I think it's still almost always a mistake to call here with full stacks.
Flop, insta-shove. Normally I'd be calling against a fish (he's at 5nl and not even playing with a full stack, he's a fish like 99.9999% of the time) when IP with a big draw but because of the stack size and his overbet we have to shove since we don't want to call a shove on the turn.

all in. he might be as dumb as having a pair, a open ended straight draw, anyway i still like my gut shot plus flush draw.
