Default Mini-step 5 - re-steal opportunity?

This is from a mini-setp 5 I played last night. I usually play the $22s, so this table seemed to play very tight to me. The SB has been very tight and played no more than 3 hands so far with no more than one PFR before this. I have been just as tight (mainly because I haven't found more than one playable hand yet).


Table Mini Step 5 1067373 (Real Money) -- Seat 4 is the button
Total number of players : 9
Seat 1: tmay420 (1010)
Seat 2: TheSwampRat (1190)
Seat 3: tolumax (910)
Seat 4: Gambiano1 (955)
Seat 5: ChipLederer (1175)
Seat 6: BurgerLover (930)
Seat 7: OLD_TABLE (1825)
Seat 8: TEVOLVER (900)
Seat 10: thebomber (1105)
ChipLederer posts small blind (75)
BurgerLover posts big blind (150)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to BurgerLover [ 9s, 8c ]

7 folds.
ChipLederer raises (250) to 325
BurgerLover ???

Does this look like a good re-steal opportunity? If I push, he'll have to call 780 (leaving him with less than 2 BBs behind) for a pot of 1255. His pot odds would be 1.6:1, so just around neutral if he doesn't have a pair and puts me on overcards (or he has a medium pair and puts me on overs).

The problem for me was that I didn't know what to make of his PFR - it's basically a mini-raise. He's giving me such good odds (~3:1), that I think he wants me to call, which means that he'll probably call my push. So should I fold or am I psyching myself out? Is his bet a pot-sweetener or a request to be pushed on?

totally lost here...
