Default 6.5 Bubble Call...is this bad?

Got berated pretty incessantly after this by the guy I busted...so, just want to check.

However, he insisted on calling me a "chaser" over and over...and I'm not really sure what relevance that has to the call.

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t200/t400
(Ante: t25)
CO5540)
BN4600)
SB1325)
BB2035)

Converter

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises all-in t1300</font>, Hero calls t900 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1800)</font>.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t2700, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t2700)


Turn: 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (t2700, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t2700)


River: T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t2700, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t2700)


Results:
Final pot: t2700




My theory was, pot odds are great, and if I win, I get ITM...might be my best chance with the amount of BB I have to make it ITM...not to mention that his range is ATC right? Thoughts?

Oh, and I went on to win the tourney after this, with him berating me the whole time, so that was fun.

I'd probably call. I'd be feeling that I'm going to be lacking FE when I'm out of the blinds, and pretty much forced to call with any two next time.

Not calling this would've have gotten you arrested by the poker police.

It's the only stack you can win the tournament against. I'd call.

His range is really wide + good odds + you have him covered = good call
