Default bad call with J4 offsuit?

14 away from the money, ave stack is 10k, blinds 500/1000 w/100 ante. Loose big stack, only guy who can bust you, makes a minimum raise to 2k from the cutoff, i'm in the big blind with 14k and J4o do you make the call of 1k getting 4.4 to 1?

With a M of roughly 4 (which I'm assuming you have based on the 10K average) you're looking to push all in or fold, not call. Fold and push all in with a reasonable hand when the action is folded to you preflop.

I agree. Push if he's been stealing your BB a lot and you need to make a statement.
