A8 vs 3-bet AIPF from blinds; $16 turbo STT
About five hands previous to this, I had doubled up for a second time with JJ (first was with KK), and started to get fairly pushy with my big stack. I was very TAG before that though (~10/10/2), and villain is about 20/8/1.
What's villain's pushing range here and can we call?

Avoid this problem and shove pre-flop?
I suppose it's a borderline shove without antes, but at least it's unexploitable. If the blinds are straightforward, maybe make it 500 and fold the push. |

I don't think shoving preflop is a good idea since the BB has 13 BB's. I call here getting 2-1 or I raise to 500 preflop instead of 600 and fold to a repop.

Actually, even getting almost 2.1-1 you might be able to find a fold here. He has to be pushing 22+ and at least some worse Aces and Kx hands before it's +cEV. That seems like a big range against a big stack.

Hand converter doesn't show (sorry, forgot to mention) that there were also antes which upped our pot odds to about 2.16:1.
Against this range: equity win tie pots won pots tied Hand 0: 32.218% 30.44% 01.78% 55242972 3233353.00 { Ac8d } Hand 1: 67.782% 66.00% 01.78% 119794546 3233353.00 { 77+, ATs+, KQs, ATo+, KQo } We're getting odds to call, if only just, and that's fairly tight IMO. |

Hmmm, I get you as a 68.2-31.8 dog using PokerStove vs top 10% (a bit wider than the range you used).
In any event, I think it's probably opponent dependent. You've got a guy who open-raises 8%, is he really re-stealing from the big stack on the bubble with that much (or more)? |
