1. There is 8000 or so in the pot and it's costing me 600 to have a look.
2. Because the BB is only raising with a big hand - he's not going to bluff what is almost a family pot.
3. Because pushing is pointless: I have no fold equity.
4. Becuase I have seven more hands to wait for four others to bust out before I make the final table.


It seems to me that, in this case, folding makes no sense. Raising also makes no sense. So I called (and prayed).
