BB has been pretty quiet so far so I haven't been able to get too much of a read on him. Everyone else at the table seems to think I'm a LAG that just continually sucks out on the flop (lol) since some of my random hands seem to hit hard. But anyhow, here's the hand.

Ultimate Bet NL $10 (6-handed)
Stacks:
SB - 10.00
BB - 5.00
Hero (UTG) - 23.35
MP - 8.15
CO - 7.90
Button - 10.00

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A /images/graemlins/spade.gif K /images/graemlins/spade.gif
Hero raises to $.35, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB raises to $5 and is all-in, Hero...

Okay, so I can't really see BB doing this without a premium here. I think he's made one squeeze-play before that was similar to this one with JJ but that was into 3 people (and it wasn't for his whole stack either). What's our best option here?

This seems to be the pretty standard response so far. At what point ($ amount BB squeezes all-in) would folding be profitable? Or better yet, had BB squeezed to say, $4 but had $10 more behind, what then?
