    Against an unknown I think I just shove. A pair+SD is a big part of his range.

    I dont like the fact that he is only min-raising. At these levels my opponent normally does this with a monster hand. Ive seen this several times. Does all agree all-in is the only option?

    Folding is an option.
    Shoving is an option.
    Calling sucks.

    What'cha know about him?

    I played with him for about 20mins before this happened. I dont know much about him. He was not involved in many pots. He opened raised all his pocketpairs and highcards I cant put him on a set here. Because most likely he would have raised all his pocket pairs. It feels like he is either holding a monster or complete bluff.

    Get better at making the most out of the information you have because it beats the shit out of trying to play the bulk of your hands against unknowns.

    Given that he seems pretty sane, but probably not good I'm more inclined to give him a mulligan here. Meh, maybe there is value in a call to see a river. Probably best to just fold.
