Marty719:
22-AA, J10+, Q9+, K8+, A2+

LongshanksED:
Even though you have a big chip stack to the sb and he"s shoving with any 2 cards, if you double him up then your right back to the end of the pack. You don"t need to play much here IMO  

Maybe a bit tight but I"d only play the sb"s all in with
pairs 66+
A10+

doubt I"d call with much else for 8bb

Marty719:
Less than 6bb"s to us and we already have 5500 commited!!  Antes r running and blinds r big!!  I think our range has to be wider than 66+ and A10+.  Its def a mistake to not call w/ kq type hands in this spot as well.

Sorry Marty, but that is not relevant to the decision. We can say that our stack is 124.5k, there is 11.5k in the middle and we need to decide whether to call for 28k against someone who will push with a huge range.
We will have 165k, 124.5k or 96.5k afterwards, depending on our decision and what then happens. We will leave them with zero, 40.5k or 68.5k. Although chips lost are usually worth more than chips won, in this situation I think we can reluctantly include any K rag in our calling range.
