Default JJ middle position, in the money

I was playing a $10 rebuy on UB and this hand came up. Would appreciate feedback:

Situation: 20 paid, we have 17 left. About 510k chips in play. Blinds 800/1600
with a 150 ante. 8 handed, so 3,600 in the pot.

Me (41k): JsJc (above average)
BB (28k): XyXy

It's folded to me in 3rd position, and I made it 4100 to go (my standard raise
late in a tourney from that position) and its folded to the BB. He raises me an
additional 8k, costing me 12k (approx 1/3) of my stack to call. He has committed
almost half his stack. Your play is:

1. Fold: Only lose 1/10 your stack and still in decent shape to chip up.

2. Call: Cost yourself 1/3 if its a low flop he might check/fold. However, he
may push flop regardless.

3. Push: Hope you're racing or he has TT. Left with 13k and an M of about 4 and
under 10 BB's if you're wrong or lose a race.



Thoughts?
