Push fold call?

Push: nay.
Fold: aye.
Curse: aye.

[losingdonkey]

no call?

Without reads I fold to the 4-bet here also.

Call and spike your set. I think it's horrible to fold for another $2.75 with this sized pot and only three handed.

It would be horrible to setmine here.
It is 2.25 more to call, and stacks are simply not deep enough.
You could call and pray villain has AK/TT and go broke on a flop with no overs.
That would not be horrible, but I would like a read before I try something like that.

call for a set, you have the implied odds here. I'd likely muck w/o hitting a set.

This might be true. For some reason I was thinking this was 10NL.

Setmining 101:

To BREAK EVEN you need to win back 11.7 times your preflop investment.
In this hand hero has to call 2.25 more.
2.25 x 11.7 = 26.3

Effective stacks 25$ (minus the rake).
There is no way you can call the 4bet to setmine and show a profit.

I'll repeat that for dramatic effect:
There is no way you can call the 4bet to setmine and show a profit.

(you CAN call and continue on a flop with no overs, but that is something else entirely - and FWIW I dont think that is a good idea either)

I called for another Jack, but noo,
