CRAI seems spewy to me. But I can be convinced otherwise.
Yeah, you might be right. Just looking at equity isn't really the right way to think about it.
Suppose his 3-bet range here is 99+, AK, AQ, AJ, and KQs. That's 66 combos. You're at 54% equity against this total range.
But let's say he folds everything except QQ+, AK. That's 21 that he calls and 45 combos that he folds.
So, 45 times he'll fold to your shove and you make $45.
The other 21 times you have 38% equity in a $500 pot [which equals $190]; you've paid $250 for this equity, so you're -60 on average these 21 times.
So. ... if I'm doing the math right, you can expect an average profit of about $11 each time you shove.
I dunno, looks like a shove to me unless you think he's tight.
[Or unless I did the math wrong.]
