if i recall correctly the 73s call is if you are going all in preflop.

Getting 5.5:1 odds on an all-in call, I think it's correct to call any 2:

equity (%)
15.9 { 72o }
48.1 { 88+, ATs+, KJs+, AJo+, KQo }
36.0 { TT-77, AJs-ATs, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, AQo }

Getting 5.5:1 odds on an all-in, we need 15.4% equity. Rake might make 72o barely unprofitable. This illustrates the power of having a short stack.
