Default Stars 55... 88 OTB behind a Raise/Steal and a RR/Resteal

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1200 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB (t32759)
BB (t15677)
UTG (t13255)
UTG+1 (t17664)
MP1 (t12375)
MP2 (t27268)
MP3 (t19070)
CO (t27358)
Hero (t7455)

No reads on MP2...MP3 is a solid, winning player (although I'm not sure how wide his restealing range is.) I'm OTB with a short-stack (6BB.) What percentage of the time does MP2 have to fold for me to make this call? I'm about 2 to 1 against a tight restealing range (88+,AQs+,AQo+) and I'm getting 2 to 1.

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8, 8.
3 folds[/i]</font>, MP2 raises to t3675</font>, MP3 raises to t19070</font>, 1 fold...Hero...?

Yeah...the math (if i'm calculating correctly) seems to indicate that this is a call (EV neutral) since I am getting the right price against a normal 4-bet range (TT+, AKs,AKo.) At this stage, with this stack it seems to be an easy call.
