99+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+ range.... 89.4% with all the cards out.
Last time I 5-bet though, they 6'd and I called and got shown a straight flush to my flush, worthy of a payoff, no tilting, next hand please dealer! >8)
Time before that, Top full, and I lost to quads.
Hey trillig,
Not to be a jerk, but how our hand is doing against his preflop range really doesn't have much bearing on how we're doing against his donk/call, redonk, bet range. It only does insofar as that we can start him off w/ a narrow range of combos and whittle down from there (as in, he won't donk/redonk AJhh or 99).
We're much more likely to be up against a range of:
Flushes (KQ, KJ, KT, QJ, QT, JT we'll give him)
Sets (QQ, 66)
Two pair (AQ)
That's 6 flush combos, 6 sets, and 3 two pair. We like our hand enough to raise against this range (especially since I think it's more likely he shows up w/ 66 than KT/QT/JT here), but we are certainly nowhere close to 89.4% equity. We're probably between 50% (if he has all the flushes and never has AQ, which is possible as we've the A of flush draw in our hand) and 75% or so (in a hugely optimistic case of him not redonking his made flushes often).
So while I agree it's a raise, it's an absolute crying call if 3 bet. 4 betting is suicide.
