Default Early Live $55 buy-in multi tournament. Push fold or call?

Early Live $55 buy-in multi tournament.

Mid1 never played with before kinda loose.
Mid2 tight (solid) predictable player.
Button loose somewhat aggressive.


Blinds 25 – 50 9 handed

Mid1 stack ~2500
Mid2 stack ~4500
Button stack ~ 6000
BB (me) stack ~ 3600

Folded to mid1 who open limps mid2 limps fold button raises to 225 SB folds I call with 7c 8c both limpers call.
Flop (925) 9s 6c 3d

I check with the attention of (considering) CR the button’s Cbet.
Mid1 checks
Mid2 bets 600 – I read this to mean at least top pair.
Button folds.
Me…

How good is a push here? Mid2 is capable of folding top pair. How often does she have to fold to make this push a + EV play? I’m ~28% against a set and ~30% against a hand like 10 9.

I folded because I wasn’t closing the action but I think this was a marginal fold at best. I believe I missed out on a good spot to pickup a lot of chips.
