Pretty simple calling range hand vs gank

I'd been fairly active, but havn't been in a hand with gank yet. Give me a range:

Maybe a little tighter.

Considering you guys are around 80x BB effective .. and he likely has nitty stats on you from SNGs... I'd say a *lot* tighter.

Given how you have been active and it's a button vs BB situation, I think you have to call 99+, AQ+. Even if Gank is generally nitty (it's been awhile since I've played with him) I think he can make some moves here.

this was gonna be my exact range as well. i just wasnt sure whether it should loosen up to AJ/88... i think those two are the really tough hands.

I would think AJ and AQ suck here considering how often this is AK.

i really dont think his range is more heavily weighted to AK than any other hand in his range. its just a button v blind situation with two players who know the other player is playing aggressively, his range ought to be pretty wide (although not ridiculously wide) here.
