How low would be your calling ranging against a player who is going all in all the time and has already showing fairly weak hands, say 5s or J9o?
And most important how would you get to this calling range?

edit: cash games, 100bb depth.

88+ and KJ+

Once I know for good certainty that he's shoving loose, I will call with that range.

1) I feel like I will be ahead enough to be +EV
2) I wanna call before someone else takes the gift

When I encounter players like this I usually fold unless I am at the top of my range. Like QQ+ and always come in for a reraise never just a call. The reason is that I don't want to call with something like 77 and get a call behind me by something like Ax and now have to play a multiway pot against half the deck.

Your decisions in spots like this should be with the mindset that you are here to profit, not to gamble. Sometimes it can be frustrating when people are shoving every hand, but your patience will pay off long term.

We need more information. Like table position and action

If the player is shoving super wide then we need to widen our range to Tens plus, AQ, AK. Maybe even the occasional Aj and ATs
