NL50: Calling range vs unknown who pushes first hand

[Nogatsira]

It all really depends on how much you can handle the variance. Against this guy it might be profitable to call with 22+, T9o+ if he's shoving any hand.
Since its only the second time in 3 hands you shouldnt probably call that loose and narrow it down to 88+, QJ+.

I guess it really depends on how much variance you can handle

[Henrix1970]

TT+, AQs+, AKo should do fine here

The skandinavian guy might like Gus Hanson and missunderstood what "loose-agressiv" actually means. (no, there are no winningplayers with babyavatas)

You have no reason to assume villain is pushing any two.
I think one of the ranges below below are fairly safe against an unknown.
Basically you can pick your variance.

Note that when adjusting your range adding a pair (77) is better than adding two broadway cards (KQ), and of course the reverse is true - subtracting AJ is better than subtracting 88.

AK,AQ,AJ,88-AA 55.12%
10% 44.88%

Hand Pot equity
AK,AQ,TT-AA 59.96%
10% 40.04%

Here's what happened:
I had JJ and folded. I have seen some 10-20 stacks sit down and do this with any two, but cant remember any 30+ do it. Thats what made the difference. I would have called QQ+,AK.

The guy played 20 more hands and left. He didnt do anything unusuall during the rest of his hands. Its likely he got AA/KK the first hand and figured I would think he was pushing any two, and call light.

If he had pushed the very next hand too my calling range would have been A8+,KQ, 66+.

I mean if he like shoves 2 hands in a span of an orbit than I am calling him superlight

I probably would have called the JJ and regretted it. Your logic sounds good and makes sense.
