Button (t1530)
SB (t3180)
Hero (t1550)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="red">MP1 raises to t200</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to t500</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t1550 (All-in)</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, CO calls t690 (All-in)

I like a push, but it`s close, without a read..

No reads, except I know the CO isn't folding - very few players fold at the $11s after reraising like this.

Close to what? Seems like a pretty clear call to me.

Clear call? or did you mean clear push?

I disagree. To me, that's a fold most of the time. You have 15 blinds, and you're up against a coinflip (re-raise probably has a 99-JJish hand. You're getting 0 fold equity there, so you're basically sticking your money in at a non-dominating time. Wait for a better opportunity.
