btw, bite me.
No disrespect man, but I think it's kind of silly that you think that anybody can come up with a helpful response to your original post. It's just so vague and unanswerable. Sure, you can use the words 'in general' or 'guidelines' and what not, but the simple reality is that these kind of situations are so incredibly dependant on stuff like reads, table dynamics, how the guy's playing, how YOU"RE playing, flop texture ('lower junk then your overpair' doesn't exactly give too much info) and just so many things that make this question absolutely useless on a practical level. I mean, in spots like this I'm usually folding small/mid pairs, but that seems really obvious. Sometimes I'll push TT in these spots and sometimes I'll fold AA. Or I might give it a call with QQ, or I might call with AA and check/fold the turn. Or check/push the turn. There's just so many variables that go into it.

I guess the question is what would you need to be holding to call the raise/play back at him? He'll play 22 like the nuts in position (kinda like Fnord).
Fnord, unless he's gone suicidal maniac since I've played with him, is a good, solid TAgg. I don't know why everyone thinks he's this crazy laggtard.
