Default Maniac preflop shoves - Need a range


Villain is a bit tilted, and shoving over raises every other hand. Think hes gonna leave the table in a minute. My call isnt too good, but EV meant less than taking this fools money. What is a range for calling shoves with

20bbs
40bbs
60bbs+

Full Tilt Poker, $0.05/$0.10 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

UTG: $11.20
CO: $19.05
Hero (BTN): $9.85
SB: $11.15
BB: $4.35

Pre-Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN)
2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $0.35</font>, SB folds, <font color="red">BB raises to $4.35 and is All-In</font>, Hero calls $4

Why would it matter? It is not like villain is rational and making different decisions based on stack sizes.

If he's shoving as often as you say, I would modify my play and steal less. If you're not prepared to call the all-in don't steal. If you have a hand that is pretty good, like this one, but not willing to call the shove I would prefer open limping on the button actually.

I would still be selective about the hands I call him with. You'll have plenty of chances so wait it out. Maybe 77+, KQ, AT+, something like that.

I'd say this is just fine for the situation. Villain has jack for a stack. Meh, I might even add down to A8s+ and toss in A5s for possibly catching a wheel. I envy you getting to play this spewtard.
