Hero (UTG+1): t1560 52 BBs
MP1: t1410 47 BBs
MP2: t1055 35.17 BBs
CO: t3045 101.50 BBs

SB: t2530 84.33 BBs
BB: t805 26.83 BBs

Pre Flop: (t45) Hero is UTG+1 with Q :club: A :diamond:
1 fold, Hero raises to t120, 5 folds, BB raises to t805 all in, Hero calls t685

I almost never call 3bet/3bet shove in early stage unless I believe/have solid reads villain is making very loose/spewy 3bets..

In this hand, I checked hand replayer and looked how he lost his hand.. see below..

His preflop raise is ok but on the aggro side.. and postflop play is also quite spewy (although c-raise is ok but probably better like 270).. since I'm against unknown I put him on the laggy side and called his shove because I think I have enough preflop equity and pot odds to make the call.. did I make the right decision based on this???

I would call that one. You would still have playable stack if you would lose.

he needs to be shoving 88+ AT+ or looser for this to be a profitable call.. without reads I would put him on a 99+ AQ+ range.. which we are pretty crushed against...

so if you believe him to be as loose as 88+ AT+ it's a call.. but I think villain is rarely this loose..

Btw preflop make it 3x the bb.. or to 90...
