Here's a mathematical answer. I'll round your 267 down to 250 to make it easier.

His best uninformed bluffing strategy is to bluff 2/5 of the time (which is 250/625). Your best uninformed calling strategy is to call 1/3 of the time (125/375).

If you will call his bluffs less than 1/3 of the time in this situation, then his bluffs will make a profit. If you think there is a better than 40% chance he is bluffing, you should call. If you think it's worse than 40%, you should fold. If you're not sure, you should call 1/3 of the time.
