HJ vs 3-Bet BTN – All Stack Depths
Default preflop ranges for the HJ vs 3-Bet BTN spot in 6-Max MTT at every stack depth, from the RangerPro library.
The Hijack bridges early and late position. You can widen slightly compared to UTG, adding some suited broadways and medium pairs that would be too risky from first position.
When your open gets 3-bet, you're facing aggression. Your continue range must account for the 3-bettor's position and tendencies. Tight 3-bet ranges call for tighter continues.
