how wide should i be defending against a resteal vs unknown?

[bustamoves]

Just wondering how wide i should be defending in this spot vs an unknown?

Villain is at the table less than two orbits and hasnt been involved in a hand yet. i havent played a hand either since he arrived so he doesnt know much about me either.

This is a small 10euro rebuy tourney on entraction with less than 70 runners, 9 getting paid and we are down to about 20 players at this stage (rebuy period well over) (10 mins blinds)

With these stacks any raise you make is pot-committing, just shove yourself. Call now obv

It really depends on the villian, the stack sizes and the dynamics of the table. But AJ is a super-standard call. I guess a better question is what's the best hand you should fold?

Raise/call or openshove every hand you're opening on the button here, which should be really wide - you can profitably jam just under 40% of hands here;

22+, Ax+, K2s+, K8o+, Q5s+, Q9o+, J7s+, JTo+, T7s+, T9o+, 96s+, 86s+, 75s+, 65s and 54s.

That's a lot of hands! I would prefer jamming to raise/calling here fwiw, balance isn't really important but people can accidentally play better vs. you if you just r/c as opposed to just shipping pre.

Just open shove, as the effective stack is 11 BBs. You are going to have to call an all-in anyway so by open pushing you get through to take the blinds more often.

Calling now is standard
