20+2, it's the bubble 100/200 blinds. No reads on anyone because of multitabling.

Short stack is the BigBlind with 5BB. you are the #3 stack with 10BB and on the button with A /images/graemlins/spade.gifJ /images/graemlins/heart.gif

It's folded to you. You raised 2.5BB and BigBlind calls.

Flop is 2 /images/graemlins/heart.gif5 /images/graemlins/club.gif8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif and BigBlind goes all in.

What should you do?

How big was the SB's stack?
Was the BB folding in ridiculous situations?

While I don't know exactly what I'd do in your situation, I can tell you that I'd never be in it.

Most likely unless the answer to the 3rd question is "if I bet 2.5bb, I know that the BB and SB will only play if they have me beat" then I hate your play. If that is the answer to that question, you played the hand most likely perfectly, if you then folded the flop.

If the answer to the question was anything but that, you should have raised all in preflop.

If I had managed to screw myself into your position, I'd have to know the other stack sizes around the table before answering what I'd do.

I would have probably raised all-in pre-flop, but since that didn't happen...

The pot now has 5.5 Big Blinds in the pot. Big Blind goes all-in for 2.5 more. I think you have to call here.

I think Jedi is completely right here.

There are a lot of hands you beat here, and you're almost getting odds to draw against a pair, if you are beat.

You've got six outs if he paired. There is 5.5 BB in the pot already, so you are getting over 3:1 to call.

Despite being a big dog here, you still have to call because of pot odds. And who knows? You may actually have the best hand.
