Hi,

This is something I struggle with. Obviously this is an easy shove if folded to me. I expect I need my range to be tighter when the pot is opened. But when it's opened by a shorter stack - how should I adjust my range? What would your range for reshoving in this spot be?

Thanks!

It depends how aggressive the shover is. If he's aggressive I would 3bet shove and if he's tight I would fold here.

Cheers,

What should the default approach be though? Villain had been tight, but this hand was just after the bubble, they had to be tight to fold into the money, so I had no real info

That makes it close, but than I would most likely wait for a better spot to shove with some fold equity left.
