Mixed challenge = more attention for this hand but I will answer anyway. It is read dependant, if you think he is bluffing call him and if you think he can beat a T fold.

2 card draws are very decpetive, he could have easily had a 5 3 4 in his hand and drew to a 9 or a better 10. I doubt he is pushing with a made J low here, it is too risky, but i have seen donks do it. I just take a deep breath and fold, you can wait for a better spot then calling off all your chips with a 10 8 low.

I'll pull this one out of mothballs.

Had he fired before at players after the draw? Many bluffers would take a shot here hoping that you didn't make your hand after drawing one. Players do hit when drawing two, so the possibility isn't outlandish. But whether his shove is legit really depends on how he typically plays pre and postdraw.

This can never be worse than a 10 ever at these limits? If the donkey is bad enough to do this you'll get him earlier, as others have said.
