Now that i look over it, why would he go all in right away with a big pocket pair, dont you think at least a shorter stack (not that much shorter) would throw a raise first to try and get a call, if hes confident in his hand. To me, looking back, it showed weakness on his part, and almost as if he didnt want a call, but of course if he did get one he wouldnt be in that bad of a shape.
If you think he's trying to steal the blinds by going all-in then he's probably a bad player. In which case, you're doing him a favor by calling because he'll have his best shot of beating you here.
Usually an all-in like this is done by a desperate player holding a medium pocket pair.
It could also be that you were calling a lot of his raises before and he's hoping you'll do it again here.
