What would you consider your hand requirements for calling here, if any?

If you call and win, you're tied in chip count.

If you fold, and double up next hand, your'e back to about where you
started, and he's going to push again.

If he pushed before you looked at your cards, you can add a little
"pizazz" to the hand by calling in the dark. Because it doesn't
matter what you have.
