Calling Shoves HU with 22/33/44? 6-Max Hyper

I'm heads up with some random fish and I'm around 1.1k he's at 1.9k, blinds are 90/180 with antes. He's also playing a 62VPIP and 18PFR over 44 hands, and this is his third time shoving in 10 heads up hands, can I call his shove with 22/33/44?

Thanks

44 probably, 22 and 33 were 100% always flipping...sometimes behind. So I think 44 is good, but I fold 22 and 33 and just wait for any 2 higher cards vs this v

Easy call with 22 with stacks this shallow.

You need to understand that you're only like 45%-50% vs his range, but you only need to call like 5bb to win like 7bb so all 3 are easy calls. If you're like 12+bb deep you can probably find bigger edges against a fish though.

A lot of things that are profitable in tournament poker are pretty counter intuitive, this is one of them . Snapcall any PP with <10BB.

Thanks everyone. I will be calling off with these now.

And I have another question, is it profitable to shove Kx from the button if you have 10BB and there are antes?

Yes, this is unexploitable. So even if you turned your hand face up it would still be a good shove.
