$27 BB defending. Not enough FE here?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button (t1365)
SB (t1445)
Hero (t710)
UTG (t2205)
UTG+1 (t330)
MP1 (t1350)
MP2 (t2880)
CO (t3215)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
6 folds, SB raises to t150, Hero raises to t710...

Villain was LAGgy (about 30/20). My re-raise costs him nearly half his stack and I'm not even giving him 2:1 odds. Am I being results-oriented or should I have let this one go?

Hmmm I think we can find better spots here I fold.

Against an aggressive player pushing is totally reasonable.

he has T550 to call and win 860. that's not very good odds, but he has you on a huge range. While, in my opinion, you have 14xBB at this point, and are about to see 6 free hands... I pass this up i believe.

another factor, villain probably doesn't mind getting involved with you since you are so short, if he somehow loses the hand, he still has 14xBB and a chance.
