    Default 6.50 JJ call this push?

    Villain is TAG 13/11

    Is it safe to assume his range is TT+ AQ+ here?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG (t1550)
    Hero (t2590)
    Button (t2785)
    SB (t3865)
    BB (t2710)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with J, J.
    UTG raises to t1550, Hero ???

    Not neccessarily. He has < 8 bbs and is about to eat the blinds for 20% of his stack. Some people loosen up a lot in that kind of situation.

    His range should be something like AT+, 77+ I think, but use reads to adjust accordingly.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    5 handed with 8 BB left he is (or should be) pushing pretty wide here. JJ = snap call
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    Seems like an insta-shove over to me. My range in UTG's position would be something like 66+, AT+.

    Standard shove here, his range is probably a lot wider than TT+.AQ+.
