Default $114s Bubble with large blinds, is this a call?

At this blind level it has been someone shoves / others fold for a couple of rounds. The button is wild aggressive and the big blind has been calling a lot until the bubble but now folds to a push so far.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t600 with t50 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t2888)
Button (t3970)
Hero (t3295)
BB (t3347)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t3920 (All-in)</font>, Hero ???

Not so sure now.. I think yes. How wide do you think he is pushing?

Button needs to be at this (22+,A2+,K2+,Q2s+,Q6o+,J7s+,J9o+,T8s+,98s) or wider. Seems like a call.

I'd call. The chances of him pushing with A X (lower than a jack) are too good. And you are in too good of shape if you win with the blinds that high.

He needs to be pushing a lot wider than Ax for this to be a call. He needs to be pwning as he should and sounds like he probably is.

Can you believe SnGWiz is saying this is a fold against any two cards? Against ATC from the button, it's call only with top 3.5%, i.e. 88+ and AKs only.

Right, good q Pudge.
Without ranges, OP question is meaningless.
