Do I have to call that raise?

Yes

Edit: Again you don't have any read on the button so despite the fact he likely has a strong hand you shouldn't just assume it is one that beats you. Your getting a little over 17:1 closing the action. You only need to be good here better than 6% of the time for the call to be profitable.

If you call and he shows you the full house then you lose one more big bet. If you fold and he shows KQ then you gave up 17 BB.
