(22r) What type of hands to call in the SB

This is just an example but I would also like to know generally what type of hands I should be calling in the SB in the mid/late stages. Any pair I think is a definite, but what about hands like T9? This is presuming I have around 15-25 BBs and that there is at least one limper already.

I'd throw this away. You really don't have as many chips as you think you do in order to complete an unsuited connector, and you will get yourself in trouble when you get top pair or middle pair more often than not.
