Default Call or raise?

A few weeks ago I was playing in a 1/2nl live cash game & the following hand came up. We had a couple of limpers in the pot already & one of the MP players made a small raise to $8. He was reraised to $22 by a fairly solid player in LP. I was on the button & looked down at A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I thought for a minute & called. Rest of the table folded, MP raiser called as well.

Do you like the call or a raise better considering I had position?

I'd rather 4-bet than call especially since we don't close the action. Depends on opponents though, if you think he's rr light pre, then 4-bet. I'd probably 4-bet anyways.

Considering its live i like just calling. People would be suprised how small people rr ranges preflop are in live games (assuming this is fr as well?)

Stack sizes from what I remember are $200-$500 on average. LP raiser had probably $250-$300 in red & some Franklins behind because I remember looking at his stack while considering whether to raise. Didn't get a count tho....
