Default $11: 88 in SB - Standard play here?

No read on either the limper or the bettor.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) converter

UTG (t1230)
UTG+1 (t1125)
MP1 (t1565)
MP2 (t1500)
CO (t2830)
Button (t1160)
Hero (t2055)
BB (t2035)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls t100, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t1160</font>, Hero?

I fold. You've got a good stack, button is pushing over a limper who may call, and you'll have plenty of better chances to get your money in. Blinds are already 100, but there are 8 people left, meaning you should get many better chances.

I fold.

Calling into coinflips is bad. Especially because limper may call. We could be up against 2 people with junk, say AT and KJ, yet that junk is still overcards. I dont think youll see A7 or 77/66 often enough.

In other words, your 50/50 at best.
