So if your initial bet is balanced, then there is no way to defend more then MDF facing the a raise, (assuming you always fold bluffs).
These two statements seem to be mutually exclusive. Did you formulate them correctly?
mdf_raise = 1 - alpha_raise
-----------------------------------------------------------------
alpha_raise > pot_odds_bet =: prob_bluff_bet
1 - alpha_raise < 1 - prob_bluff_bet
-----------------------------------------------------------------
==> mdf_raise < 1 - prob_bluff_bet = prob_value_bet
Therefore, Hero has the potential to defend more than mdf_raise by calling all of his value hands. In other words: Hero has to fold all of his bluffs plus some of his value hands to meet gto conditions.
