Hi all,
Im having a little trouble with calling ranges and shoving ranges at level 2 and 3 in the pokerstars hypers.
Im constantly finding myself in this situation when I have 600 chips and my opponent has 400 chips on Level 2 15/30 Blinds.
I raise double to 60 chips and my opponent shoves.
Just wondered what people calling ranges are at this level.
Also the reverse of this situation when im in big blind and my opponent raises my big blind. What are people shoving ranges here.
Any help on this would be fantastic
Thanks
Gazken
There is no answer to your questions, because there are too many variables. Best thing you can do is to get better, watch videos, read mers e-book, play with ICMIZER or 3-bet shoving equity calculator. Only hard work will let you feel confident about calling 3b jams and 3bet jamming yourself.
Just as a guide:
I ran an estimated 3bet shove range at 25bb from my population database at the 3.50 level on Stars an ICMIZER came up with a calling range of:
22+, A5s+, A8o+, KTs+, KQo.
The range I used for a general villain was pretty random and included some spew hands.
