i typically don't call with 98o after a raise and re-raise in front of me.

I hate commenting on anything over $100, but this appears to be dismal play.

I'm assuing this is 1-table, normal pay structure and all that jazz?

Johnny's play seems to be just an aggressive steal, probably based on prior notes on his opponent (and the fact his opponent needs a monster to call)

Depends on the game texture. Maybe MehnDaMassah had been getting away with too many blind steals. A push/re-steal would mean he'd comfortably be 2nd in chips and have a good chance to win, while a fold would put him in pretty bad shape.

My original comment was about the small stack's call, the rest seems reasonably normal.
