    What kind of hands has he been showing down (if any)?
    Bilnds aren't exactly crippling, but they are going to eat in if I have to keep laying down. Ideally, I would want to see a flop, make a hand and then let him push, but that would be dependant on how often he was doing this.

    Every hand - I'm calling here
    If it's more of a "tourette's" push (i.e. just random, out-of-the-blue type stuff), I might just pass this one up, repeat might

    If he likes to push in alot, I'm calling no question. I mean AQs is a deadly hand HU. At worst it's a coin flip with a pair, at best he just pushed any Ax.
    pulling a courtiebee pŏŏl-ĭng ā kôrt-ē-bē (verb phrase):
    1. overvaluing mid pocket pairs
    2. knowing you should fold, but donkishly calling or raising anyway

    HU against an aggressive opponent, this is a dream situation. You most likely have him pwned big time. Call and enjoy. You're 65% against a ramdon hand, and still a 61% vs any hand 22-QQ, AKs-A2s, KQs-K2s, AK0-A2o, KQo-K2o. Take out the pairs and put him on Ace rag or King rag and you're over 67%.
