What is the smallest pocket pair that you would consider starting with?

for 1x bb:
With any of them in late pos.
with 5-6-7-8-9 in mid pos.
playing them in early position depend on others at the table.

but if i can i call the bb preflop because if I get a set at flop I can win a really big pot

oh, yeah, in HU a 22 can be good enough to (re-)raise all in. mostly it's 50-50%

If the pot is big and there are many players in any pair would do. if you're in early position i think anything over 99 would do

Any pocket pair is worth holding for a flop, obviously the higher the better. Depending on preflop bets, use position to determine your bet. Play low pairs in late position, in early position I like to stick with TT JJ QQ KK AA.
