Default How About This Game Theory Problem

So today when I got into the 25-50 blind no limit, nine handed game at the Bellagio they told me there was a seven deuce bonus. Win the pot with 72, even without a flop and every player must give you $200. Which brings up this question.

Seven players fold to you in the small blind. You have 2000 more in your stack and must move all in or fold. With what hands should you? What should the big blind call you with? If I'm reading the chart in the Mathematics of Poker correctly, the move in hands would normally be any pair, any ace suited, K7 or better suited, Q8 or better suited, J9 or better suited, T8 or better suited, 98suited, 87 suited, A7 or better offsuit, KT or better offsuit, QT or better offsuit, or JT offsuit.

The calling hands would be fives or better, A8 or better suited, KJ or better suited, AT or better offsuit, and KQ offsuit.

Does the $1600 bonus (plus your extra $200 risk) change that to any signicant degree?
