Default Re: when to call a habitual pusher

In my experience people start playing a lot better when they get a double stack. They may start off playing quite badly, but then reality hits. They tighten up condiderably or leave the table.

You don't want him to stop pushing or leave. Unless you think he'll continue to play this way with a double stack, you should pick a better hand to call his all-in.

IMO call with 88+ and AT+, which gives you a good +EV expectation and small risk of someone else catching him first.
