Do we just flick it in with our entire opening range here, or is there a hand you will consider folding that you open preflop once it goes raise/call, despite the small sizing?

One of the alleged greatest tournament poker players of all time claims that there is not a single hand in our open range here that we should fold once it goes 3bet/call given the sizing. I strongly disagree, but I am just a new guy so what do I know.

What do you guys/gals/trolls think?

You shouldn't have hands in your opening range with which you aren't happy to at least call here.

Maybe I'd open and now fold exactly ATo.
