Meta-Game Trade-off : Making a bad call in exchange for image

[franknagaijr]

Let me put in a theoretical scenario, to see if anything gels. Forgive the vagueness of this hand description, there is a point here.

Hero is in an MTT, and we are within sight of the bubble. Hero makes an obv button steal with non-stellar cards. Let's say the BB calls the raise, and has at least as many chips as hero. Hero flops a draw and makes a 1/2 pot c-bet, and Villain puts hero all-in.

1) What is the weakest draw the hero should call with, assuming about 2 to 1 pot odds.
2) If doubling up makes hero the table big stack during the prime blind-stealing hour, should hero be willing to lower calling standards in this spot, and by how much?

Does that clarify the original question?
