Post Calling ranges vs preflop raises

I doubt a bit with the hands I can call a preflop raise on a 5/10cent 6-max game.

With what hand ranges are you calling a preflop raise from EP, MP and CO?

I read somewhere that you can call with AQ/AJs/AQs/KQs ans sPP, but what about SC as 78s-TJs?

And what ranges do you use vs a 3bet from the blinds against a BTN and CO raise? To call and 4betten/Shoven?

Is the Calling range only TT-QQ/ AK and the 4bet/Shoving range AA/KK but vs aggro villains you 4bet/shove QQ-AA/AK?

Thanks!

This question is too open-ended and vague to answer. As a beginner, I folded anything that wasn't good enough to 3bet. Nowadays I'll cold call a lot hands to play my position. But it's so opponent-dependent and a situation-based thing that you can't give one cookie cutter response to it.

As urbansprawler said, this is far to open ended!

It is all going to depend on ur position and the raisers position.

Example 1- If someone raises 4X UTG and u have AJ in the bb i would fold as u are likely to be dominted by AK/AQ (uless you know this person to be a crazy loose player).

Example 2- If someone raises 3.5x UTG+1 and u have 10 Js on the BTN i would defo call, as you are going to have position on him.

Example 3- If someone raises form CO and u have AQs on the BTN i would 3 bet and if they 4 bet u, u then have to fold.

Basiclly you should never really be looking to play big pots when u are out of position. (obv i u have AA/KK ur just gunna look to get it all in pre flop if u can, if not ur still gunna be playing these huge hands out of position).

When somebody else rases/3bets you have to think what kida range you would be rasing/3betting with from there position, and if the cards u hold are toward the bottom af this range of below then u should just fold.

At the 0.05/0.10 stakes i find you are best just not getting ur self into marginal situations, and only play hands pre flop u are confident you are going to win with. You do not need to play decent hands like AJ out of position to make a lot of money at the micro stakes.

Hope this has kinda awsnered ur q!

GL at the tables!
