Thanks for the response. I didn't mean to imply this had anything to do with the 2-1 rule, since I'm not saying I'd call with anything here. I just think based on what I know about the player, I think more often than not I'll have the better hand (maybe not a lot better, but slightly better on average- for example, he'd raise 500 with Q 10), and in fact by calling I'm getting 2-1. And with 800 left after this hand if I fold and the blinds soon moving to 150-300, I really wonder if I would get a better spot. Possible of course...
