Currently playing in a $3 tourney on FT and there are 2 players on the table, been there from the start, who are very aggressive. player 1 45/25/3 and player 2 39/27/3.

I have tighened up against them and it has paid off a couple of times however I was wondering if there would be a better way of playing against them e.g. Shove over the top with a wide range of starting hands.

What do you guys think?

They are sitting in the 2 positions to my left. Last hand I was UTG with AQo. Raise 2.5 x bb. SB all in. BB insta call. I fold and they show KQo and QJo. ;(

ugh, wait for antes to hit, and if he's still opening a lot just start shoving over his raises i guess? you can justify shoving up to like A7+, KQ, KJ, KTs+, 55+ i think? get careful once u get up to like 8k at 100/200+25 tho

Changed game style already and it has worked. up to 9.5K. At least if I make a big hand I know he will pay me off.
