First hand of heads up SNG. Villain moves all in. No reads on him. Which hands do you call with?
I have a big ego and feel that if a man does that, doesn't have a clue about poker and is some aggressive donk who I can outplay by slowplaying so I fold here everything except QQ +, maybe JJ. Might be just one idiot who doesn't know how to play AA.
I fold and wait for a better opportunity. What do you think? Which hands would you call with?

AA is the only hand I'd call with if I have never played one hand with the guy.

Folding KK would be absurd.

Yea I know but with no reads whatsoever? I dunno.
I played a one on one sng the other day and pushed my maybe 7th hand all in with KK...other guy had 99 and started telling me how much of a donk I was.
I then followed him around the one on ones and beat him 3 more times.
Fun stuff.

What were the blinds? If they were low, there was no reason to push all in. You should rather try to extract some money.
Only AA? You got a big ego.
Against low limit internet players, I don't mind folding because I think I can outplay them. Against Phil Ivey (who wouldn't do that anyway) I might call with AQ, hoping for a coin flip.
