Q8o cuz lol live poker. Also, if I'm going to be including lottsa other loose hands that bring their equity down, I also have to include similar loose hands that bring their equity up.
Bottom line for me on this unless someone stoves differently: we can argue about the outliers of their range here, but that is only going to make percentage point differences in our overall flop equity, which is in and around 50/50 for continuing hands.
ETA: Regarding betting to fold out hands, no one is folding Qx / pair + draw / etc. on this flop based on bet size because lol live pokers. This is in fact why I think Doc wants to bet so much, which I woudl be in *total* agreement with *if* we actually had a monster (which stove tells us we don't).
