Default Shove on raggy flop, what do you need to call here?

Villain is regular TAG.
What hands do you put villain on?
Which hands do you need inorder to call this?

My range for villain is {TT-99,55-44,Ah5h,Kh5h,8h7h,7h6h}
Is this too tight?

MP2 (t980)
MP3 (t1220)
CO (t1285)

Hmm, well if he's TAG and pushing this then he either has a set, two pair, or a very nice draw. Therefore I'd need one of those myself to call. I assume you don't have an overpair because if you limped behind with TT+... well let's just say I wouldn't do that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I call with any set, my 45s for two pair, any combo straight and flush draw, as well as A5 of hearts. I fold middle pairs.

I think I call with two hearts and the 5h, with Ahxh (esp if x is bigger than a 9), with two pair and with a set. I also probably call with AhAx and think for a while with other overpairs. I think your range is too tight, yes. I put him on {TT-44, Ah5h+, A9o, A9s, KhTh+, QhTh+, JhTh, 8h7h, 7h6h, 6h5h, 54o}. Maybe even 76o or 76s. This big a reraise feels a lot more like a flush draw or some marginal hand than a monster to me.

A tight player doesn't openlimp A5s, K5s, 87s or 76s from MP1. This is almost always a set afraid of all the draws out there.
