    you could raise it 250 to make it 4 bbs for gary who beat u to call

    then that way you have reason to belittle the fucker when he calls 200 chips with q2 suited

    i make it 250, but either way is fine

    he committed a large portion of his stack preflop with Q2, no matter how much he calls, 200 or 250, he is still making a mistake.

    I usually make it 250 to build the pot. No one's folding for 250 that they'd call for 200 this early. Just unlucky.
