Default Quick Question

Blinds are 75/150, I have a +average stack with 2.6k, nowhere near the bubble. Comperable stack minraises my BB from the CO, and I look down at A6. No read, but this is low stakes, and I tend to expect this to be a standard raise for a player if I see it for the first time. I've been calling here 100% of the time, but crap myself every time an A flops. Should I play all hands here? If not, what should I play?

I'm leaning towards raising standard EP raising hands, calling with small pocket pairs and suited connectors, JTo, and folding all else, entirely to keep myself out of trouble. Dumb?

Oops, CO. Editted. But, for the record, I don't think he knows he's in the CO.

You can playback a little more liberally. Small PPs are best played like that in this situation.

But my general, tight/drawing hands approach is about right? Ie, fold A5o?

yes. However, I love flat calling with those types of hands in the BB when the SB raises. People play so poorly in the blinds. (of course it could be argued that my first statement is evidence that I play poorly in the blinds...) But yeah, Co raises, toss A5o.
