Reacting to a pre-flop shove

[happyhornet]

I haven't played much cash recently, but have been dabbling at 25/50c on Pacific full ring NLHE, and doing pretty well. One thing I have noticed is a lot of players when they have 20-30 BB in front of them (whether by design or loss) tend to throw it in pre-flop. I know this is a popular idea amongst certain players, but i am looking for advice on how to play against it. Last night with $60 in front I called an all in from UTG+2 for $13. I had KK so seemed an obvious call. He had A7s and hit. It happens....a lot:tongue2. My question is what hand would you have called with and what would you fold with. I had only been on the table for 10 minutes, seen nothing of note from anyone, and have no tracking software to assist me? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Steve

Re: Reacting to a pre-flop shove The full ring regs will be able to give a better answer than me but IMO if to call a quarter of your stack i'd be doing it with pairs 77+ and AJ+. Depends what position you are compared to the shover though, your calling range should be tigher the more people left to act but can expect a bad shortstacker to be shoving KJ+ maybe TJs.
