Default All-in or a smaller reraise?

Typical 10+1 Party game. UTG+1 is a horrible player who just called a raise and a reraise all-in with K8. SB could be tilting on this hand since it was his QQ that was beat by the K8.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed)

BB (t905)
Hero (t770)
UTG+1 (t2200)
MP1 (t1350)
MP2 (t800)
MP3 (t570)
CO (t595)
Button (t650)
SB (t160)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t90</font>, UTG+1 calls t90, MP1 calls t90, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, <font color="CC3333">SB raises to t150</font>, BB folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t770 (All-In)</font>, UTG+1 calls t680, MP1 folds, SB calls t10 (All-In).

I have no idea what SB was saving his last 10 chips for, but my question is at the point where I made my all-in reraise. Is the push automatic or should I consider a smaller reraise and see a flop?

The push is fine. A smaller reraise sucks. Your other option is call to try to avoid going broke against a larger pair. The problem with that it lets the other players in cheaply. The other problem is that you are probably allin on an undercard flop anyway. Call is OK but it's going to be a bastard to play on the flop.
