Ugh. It depends on your opponent. If your opponent is very passive then raise them most of them. Fold a couple to make him think, but raise more often then not. If he is very aggressive then drop them.
For example, the other night during a live tourny it got down to heads up and we had about even stacks. Right off the bat I could see that he would fold to even the slightest aggression. Therefore I just started raising almost every hand. I ended up taking down his entire stack without ever needing to get to a showdown.

Like soup said, it depends on your opponent. It also depends on stack sizes, blind levels, etc. Just because you have T7o doesn't mean you're dominated. When it's heads up late in a tourney, you're playing your opponent, not the cards.

Unless your opponent raises out of the BB a significant amount of the time, you almost always have pot odds to at least call. Against a passive opponent you might consider raising. But I wouldn't fold unless there's a good chance my opponent will raise OOP.
