Early in the $20r.

The shover lost a 10k pot with TT to JJ about 10 hands ago and has been a bit pushbotty out of necessity. The antes haven't kicked in, yet. BB is Twelver and I don't disagree with his call at all, but I'm wondering what the bottom of the calling range should be in the BB here.

How, if at all, does your stack influence your call in the BB?

Blinds: t100/t200
9 players


Stack sizes:
UTG: t14890
Hero: t9135
MP1: t9000
MP2: t11275
MP3: t1515
CO: t11895
Button: t9815
SB: t6610
BB: t7775

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is UTG+1 with
UTG folds, Hero folds, 2 folds, MP3 raises all-in t1515, 3 folds, BB calls t1315 (pot was t1815).

So he's getting about 1.5-1 here. I'm assuming the rebuy period is over?

As you described the guy I'd call with A9+, KQ possibly, and any PP over 55 at least mostly due to his stack size.

If hes been pushing a lot i call here with any good king, any ace, any pair...maybe even QJ. If it cost me like half my chips to call i think i tighten my range a bit to KQ, A7+, any pp.

So yea, your stack should influence your range IMO. My cutoff is usually if i call and lose....and i lose the fold equity needed for resteals..i tighten my range. If that makes sense..
