ah.. blinds are 100/200, not 200/400.

if he's been tight, i would call with any pair, ATo+, A2s+.

if he's been stealing my blind, i would call top 25%.

Without thinking about it too hard I'd probably call with 88 (Maaaybe 77) or AT.

If he has folded every single hand up until now (not likely [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]) he might have AA!

It doesn't matter if you know for a fact he is a rock.. it is definitely a call with JJ+, AQ+ and probably a call at 10 10 and A10+

Yep. I played this hand and then started thinking about calling standards. The hand was a no brainer but I honestly wanted to get a feel for posters calling standards.

I insta called in this case and then asked myself, with the stacks like this, how low would I go?

A much more interesting poster than me would've sub'ed 99 for the JJ and that actually crossed my mind - after the first 3 posters replied - which was too late. I've got another one tho...
