I think it's hard to create a good "std" calling range because position of open and 3-bet, type of player you are and your opponent in creates too many variables. I think in general you just obviously don't want cards that will be easily dominated. 100bb effective you should really just be super selective w/ your calling range.

I think most people calling 3-bets oop can't achieve -250bbs/100. At least from the data I've seen. IP, a much different story. And really, until you build any history with someone I'd error heavily on the side of folding to any 3-bets w/ marginal hands OOP. When in doubt, fold. But IP call w/ a much much wider range. So if someone is just looking at call 3-bet%, it looks in a std range. Then when you build history, calling with some SC's (in certain spots), and AK/AQ type hands and occasional big hands JJ+. But before you build history, play as exploitative as you possibly can at the stakes you're playing. If you do this well, your IP and OOP ranges won't look normalized yet and people will mis-read your ranges, which is an even bigger advantage because they don't know you've switched gears yet. But in most micro and even small stakes games, it's hard to build that much history.
