JROME Registered at 2011-04-02 Posts: 14	This is, for me anyways... one of those situations that will almost always be a coin flip scenario. I usually won't call an all in player on unsuited high cards unless it's for under 20% of my stack, especially if I am not holding an Ace... Mostly because short stacks are notorious for going all in on an Ace-Low, let alone an A-K. To each their own, but I would've folded.
