Default KJs - Priced in to call?

PS 11R

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

UTG+1 (t19071)
MP1 (t6766)
Hero (t10461)
MP3 (t2365)
CO (t10898)
Button (t3193)
SB (t14525)
BB (t10253)
UTG (t48876)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t400, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t400, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t3168</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls

I have no read on the villian. Against a tight player I am probably beat and maybe a 2-1 dog. But the villian might be pulling a squeeze play here and he is also shortstacked so that opens up his range quite a bit. Is getting 1.7 a good price to call?

Is this a standard call given the situation or a losing one?

This is post rebuy right? If so fold... Youre not getting 2-1 for a coin flip, youre dominated by AK KQ JJ and KK, behind AA. Really hoping for a coinflip and dont have odds to call it...

Youre risking like 25% of your stack on a mediocre hand like KJ. Sure he could be pushing with air but you cant be 100% sure and dont have chips tor gamble like this... just fold and find a better spot.

How's this range look?

Just did it quickly but with the antes it looks like you need 40% equity and with this range you're almost spot on. I didn't throw in any air, but I think the range is pretty loose anyway.
