Easy fold. No reason to risk entire stack so early w/out a huge hand.

That seems insanely tight to me. How does TT+(JJ+?), AK sound to you guys?

In a turbo I might consider a call if I had a read...in a normal tourney I'd toss it. Rythm's range (JJ+) AK seems about right to me, but I wouldn't fault anyone for folding the JJ either.

EDIT: Of course if I have a read that he's shoving wide enough that I'm considering calling with 88, I'm either shoving or raising stronger in the first place.

I might call 99. I'd call with AQ as well..

It's button vs blinds, so you can call fairly wide. Certainly KK+ is stupid tight.

I suck at paying enough attention sometimes. For some reason I thought it was button vs CO.
