Default HU hand question

So this is the 5th hand heads up and I have pushed every single time it was on my SB and villain has folded his SB like 2x. I have no reason to suspect he is crazy and his range is probably along the lines of 22+, a2+, k7s+, q9+, jts+ and maybe some suited connectors (67s-t9s) but I doubt it.

Without running it thru SNG PT who calls here?

Seat 1 is the button
Total number of players : 2
Seat 9: Hero ( $3335 )
Seat 1: Villain ( $4665 )
Trny:14701935 Level:8
Blinds(200/400)

Dealt to Hero [ Ac 2h ]
Villain is all-In [4465]
Hero...

i pass.

A8'ish is pushing my limits (for a call). a little better cover for his 33-66 pushes. if you folding put him sizably over 2:1 maybe. this fold here isn't quite the end of the world. i'd fold.

That hand doesn't do well against your estimate of his range. I would only call with that if he was much more aggressive.

Absolutely DO NOT call. Especially against an opponent such as this.

Against an opponent this tight, the threat of domination with your hand is huge. Why take a chance like this when it has been so easy to steal from him?

Easy fold here, IMO.

as tempting as an ace high looks heads up and with high blinds, when u think about it u dominate absolutly 0 hands, while your chances of being dominated are great.

even if hes pushing itty bitty 33 your crushed. especially if he isnt aggressive, fold this one and look for a better push or call.

You don't really need the blinds either, this is by no means a need to win a hand. Pass.

A2 is basically a breakeven call against this range:

22+,A2+,K6o+,K2s+,QTo+,Q8s+,JTs

Take that for what its worth.

Just for reference A7o is breakeven against this range:
22+,A2+,KTo+,K9s+,QJs

I don't think anyone on party is that tight HU. A8 should be an autocall against pretty much anyone.
