Default Working out pot odds to call a BB reshove

I can never seem to work out precisely the right odds I need to call when the BB shoves your bet all-in.

Here is a hand from a final table I was at yesterday...

PokerStars Game #7905934225: Tournament #40389119, $20+$2 Hold'em No Limit - Level XII (800/1600) - 2007/01/12 - 22:16:55 (ET)
Table '40389119 9' 9-max Seat #7 is the button
Seat 1: Hoolock (39650 in chips)
Seat 2: littlescoot (56244 in chips)
Seat 3: Jakey1000 (41157 in chips)
Seat 4: nassplif (15929 in chips)
Seat 5: ActionDavidK (10076 in chips)

Board [2c 9h 2d 8s 4s]
Seat 1: Hoolock folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 2: littlescoot folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 3: Jakey1000 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 4: nassplif folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 5: ActionDavidK folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 6: hunkyrabbit showed [Qh 8d] and lost with two pair, Eights and Deuces
Seat 7: stiesnking (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 8: esra gibb (small blind) folded before Flop
Seat 9: jake002 (big blind) showed [8h Ah] and won (34433) with two pair, Eights and Deuces


Now as I have been playing agro, the BB's shove didn't indicate an especially strong hand. Also he was playing fairly loose so my read was that he was shoving with any Ax hand.

Assuming this is true and assuming that he didn't have an 8 also (say he had A-6) did I make a good call here?
