Default NL 25 - facing open flop push

Villain just sat down and bought in for 10 or some [censored]. Is this a really easy call?

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $20.80
BB: $16.95
UTG: $11.60
CO: $30.05
Hero (BTN): $30.85

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (5 Players)
UTG calls $0.25, CO calls $0.25, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.25</font>, SB folds, BB calls $1.00, UTG calls $1.00, CO calls $1.00

Flop: ($5.10) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (4 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">UTG bets all-in for $10.35</font>, CO folds, Hero??

i usually call. its unlikely that he would play a strong hand like this (set/etc), he's a short (seemingly) donkish player (short and limped pf). i think that you see diamonds/SD/weaker aces alot here.

Im probably pushing over calling to clear everybody else out of the hand. But orange is right..you see a weaker ace here a lot (just hopefully not a5,a4

Easy call.

He seems like a donk, and most of the time will turn over a weaker ace, flush draw etc.

That's just Seņor variance coming over to say hello. Just remember, poker is about +EV. You might lose a big pot here and there, but just keep making good decisions and in the end you'll end up ahead.
