His shove is actually a good play for Hero since it makes it a bit less likely he has AJ, would be more likely to min raise or peel one if he felt he has nuts, less likely he wants either hand to fold on flop. Look for LP to have any J in his hand and quite possibly a re draw to flush. Definitely call.
For LP, hero has "no real reads." So we have to treat him as an ordinary, routine player. Not terrible, not an expert. This may be incorrect, but until we gain some reads we should assume he plays like the average player.
I don't see the average $1/2 player with a stack of $200 calling $45 pre with all of KQs/KJs/KTs/QJs/JTs.
A mistake we often make is constructing a range for the post flop action that ignores V's pre flop play. For an average player, most (perhaps all) of these hands are eliminated after he calls $45 pre. How many average players call $10 from EP with KTs, then $35 more from BTN? When we make this mistake, we call too much because we have widened V's range to include more hands that we beat, but really are not in his range.
