Default Minimum Raise SB/BB

Hello!

THe hand was taken from a 15 dollar turbo sng.
Have not seen much from the Small blind but he reraised light one time and folded on the flop.Ten hands ago i got min raised from the Button and folded.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t675)
UTG+1 (t3250)
MP1 (t2570)
CO (t3870)
Button (t685)
SB (t945)
Hero (t1505)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t300</font>, Hero calls t150

Flop: (t675) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
<font color="red">SB bets t300</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t1205 (All-in)</font>, SB calls t345 (All-in)

Afterwards i think that folding to the min raise would be right despite the good odds(apart from maniacs in SB)
How would your line look?

Thanks for replys!

Who else says that this is a clear fold in a *16*?
I would probably play it the same way as hero. nh

calling's not bad but its not necessary here. JTo is a marginal hand. while you're definitely getting the odds to call, you have a great chip stack and don't need to risk it when you get into tough positions like this.

Maybe I'm too weak.

It's jsut I've seen plenty of villains that do this with almost any two. Also, you very often get a free card after the flop...which of course is horrible on villain's part, but I've seen it often.

If i notice this pattern, I take a note and make sure to have a semi-decent hand to push over him with. That stops them fast, normally.

Ok afterwards i thought that the call was only a marginal(not realyy bad though) move.It was the first min raise this player
made when i was in BB.
As played it seemed to be either a crappy or great hand from him.

Fold PF. If you think he's full of [censored] then push.
