Villain is an ok reg, nothing unsual till now.

What is his range here? 9x, 6x an and draws? He was quite 3bet happy so I dont think he has an ace here ever.

What is your calling range in this spot?

Full Tilt, $22 Buy-in (20/40 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 2 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

Hero (SB): 845 (21.1 bb)
BB: 2,155 (53.9 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 6

Hero raises to 80, BB calls 40

Flop: (160) 9

(2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets 80, BB raises to 2,075 and is all-in, Hero folds

Ax and draws are most of his range.

I'd call AX+, and good draws

yes

Just because he's 3b'ing you alot (over what is probably a pretty meaningless sample as far as deriving an accurate 3b'ing %) doesn't mean he's 3b'ing all his AX.

Yeah I would need something pretty drastic to eliminate every single ace from his hand.

Hmm, we're 22 bb deep here - so if you're opening your buttons wide, then he should, in theory, be shoving almost any Ax here.

However, it'd make perfect sense for him to have something like KQdd / 98dd.

I'd call here with any Ace, anything between TT-KK and good draws.
