Fold or shove here?
And what % of hands would you think are in the villains range, having no reads at all? Is 22-25% standard?
he's shoving for 2 and a half bb???? seems pretty academic to me. if he'd been at your table for longer so you could get more of a read on him i'd probably think about it more but chances are he's shoving with practically any 2. more likely some sort of Ax or Kx type hand, but certainly not exclusive to that range. QTs does flop reasonably well. it also depends what types are in the blinds as well. it looks like you've got a couple of taggy types in the blinds that don't 3bet much. if it was me i'd elect to raise this to about 5500 – 6000
obviously if that's just a typo and it's more than 2 and a half bb's then disregard everything i've just said
He's raising about 2.4x from the CO. He isn't shoving. He's got 20BB.
The villain is bolded.

With no reads on villain it's tough but I agree that his CO opening range is probably somewhere in the 20's.
A shove is perfectly reasonable but you also have a tight table. Lately I've been tightening up my re-shove range at tight tables and really widening my opening and open shoving (once I get short) range.
Honestly I don't think either play is a mistake here.

I agree with coolers on the reshove ranges on merge, and open shoving is very profitable on there as well. So many people seem to be limping as well, I have been shoving over limpers a ton lately in late position with 15-20 bbs with a ton of success, just watch the good players, they like to have a top 10 hand in that spot, but there are not many of those. Oh, and watch out for that goddamn RonFezBuddy, he likes to have QQ when I have JJ, lol. Only kidding RFB.
