Default Shortstacked near the bubble

Live tournament. Blinds 1000/2000 with 200 ante. I have 6600 chips before posting BB and ante. 18 players paid, about 23 left. 8 handed. Player in CO, who is VERY tight, pushes about 25k. Button, who is loose, says "I know I'm behind, but I have to play this hand, so it's all or nothing for me.", and calls with his 17k. I call in the dark.

Can anyone fold here? No matter how good the odds, I KNOW I'm way behind and looking for a miracle.

Well, my cards were live, but didn't come through. Initial all in with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], caller A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I had Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Flop shows two 9s and no hearts and I'm done. Again, it didn't matter what my cards were, I felt I had to call... or did I?
