Default ($22) Loose bubble call?

I'm getting 2:1. If he's pushing any 2, a call is very +EV, but if he's pushing <65% here, I need to fold. Is he?

PartyPoker, Big Blind is t300 (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2525)
CO (t1575)
Button (t1085)
SB (t930)
Hero (t1885)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t780 (All-in)</font>, Hero calls t630

Flop: (t1860) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)

River: (t1860) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

I had a feeling, but I'm not sure it really followed from the action. So let's say no, although I'd seen him make the donkish move of betting t600 pf at 100/200, then folding to a push. (Started that hand wtih t1700)

How is 5 handed the bubble with no other micro stack or whatever?

I would almost certainly fold here.

My nice little calling chart tells me that foe needs to push a good chunk more than 50 % of his hands in this spot to make it profitable. Also, showing down J6o slows down some of the prospective pushers in the next rounds. I call.

I can't think of any reason I'd call this, but I think I'm too tight on the bubble.

It's 65%. Most people do not have the stones to push that much here, honestly.

By the way against the usual suspects at say a $109 I'd probably call, but this is a $22 and I can't see them shoving T5o. They don't understand ICM like we do.

Around 65% would have been my estimate.

It was my impression at the PS 27s for the last 100 trnys, that there is a ever growing amount of pushers at my tables.
I played some PTY 22s the last 2 days and yes, this seems to be different there. Donks and tighties.
