Table is pretty loose passive. What's a good shoving range here?

I like.

EDIT : Although I would much prefer to do this with A5s . Just dont like playing A6-A9.

down to A2s

doesnt look bad to me

can you explain why?

Cause they give you straight outs as well. Here hero is trying to squeeze, and just hoping people fold more than anything. So if we get called, we might just want these extra out to make the difference.

EG: If we shove A6s, and villain call with AK, then, we have only 3 outs. but with A5, we still have the 3 outs and we have the opportunity to flop better. Its very lil difference equity wise, but I just prefer it this way.

you do realise that the flop will only come 2 3 4 approximately 0.33% of the time?

Yeah I play it the same, and when they call with KT and you bink, type in the chat window " And tell all your friends too".

I shove rly wide when there's this much on the pot already. depending on the table, I could easily see myself shoving J8o, 95s or smtg like that. just make sure there's no one big enough to call you and not miss the chips.
