i mean i do agree with you a % of the time its good to change it up and play a hand like you're suggested, but you should be getting it in most of the time

Probably really doesnt matter what I do here, its super close either way and more annoying than anything else. Rush poker, so no reads.
Some facts:
I need 45.4% equity to call profitably
I have 46% equity vs AA
I have > 50% equity vs QQ+
I am 39% vs a set

I think this is a really clear call just based on how rarely you're going to be up against a set/straight and how well you do against an overpair<KK.

Did you include Ahxh in the ranges?

these two things seem to make it closer, but idk how to balance the two in my range for villain snap openshoving. I just thought it was interesting because its probably within a few bb's of neutral EV. Not a significant leak either way, I was just curious what people thought on this close of a spot (I called pretty fast fwiw)

snaplar and embrace the variance (he can have flushdraws you crush too)

How on Earth is our equity "meh" when we get it in? We will always be at least a 2:1 against any hand. If getting it in with 67% equity is "meh" then you must be the biggest nit on the planet.

i don't understand what the hell you are talking about? you think you need to balance this spot with draws? not that its relevant, but you are very wrong.

what range do we have 67% equity against that he is 3bet/calling here?

if these are serious posts, wtf.

also, saymond gets the credit, but you should be mostly raising when your perceived range matches your actual range and flatting when your perceived and actual ranges are different. it'd be better to flat this flop with AsQ or something....
1. we win the pot when he has air on later streets, so its pretty irrelevant.
2. this is dumb, if anything we want more money to go in when we do hit our draw. We have no real reason to inflate the pot.
3. explain? if he 3balls you here, you get 0 free cards, and we don't see turns/rivers cheaper with this line.

your other points are incorrect as well, do you think anyone folds sets bvb when a flush comes in? i doubt anyone folds a even 2 pair bvb, i don't know why you think people will make absurd hero folds on the turn.

What calling range are you assigning where we have 67% equity. Against a reasonable stack off range I don't think it will pass 56%.
01-27-2010 , 10:57 PM
The whole idea with the hand is you can get it in better and actually make plays with your hand on the turn/river as opposed to just getting it in flipping for dead money. Just my thoughts on that.

1. if he 2 barrels you and you don't have odds or 3 barrels you and you miss, you've wasted your draw
2. we want money in the pot when our equity is good, flop fold equity + actual equity = a good spot to get money in (+ 2 cards to come)
3. if by 3ball you mean 3bet, i'm getting it in and i'm happy. if by 3ball you mean 3barrel, then that's one reason to raise the flop to get free cards

the point is to maximize our profit vs his range, not only when he has 2pr+. we want him to stack off w/ AT vs our draw, which he won't do once the flush hits.

edit: fwiw, i'm not saying you're wrong, we can easily play the hand both ways

I have only 1 thing to add to the "89s hand debate".

but we don't have the nuts, we actually don't have equity with a psr of 12 to get it in vs. a lot of ranges.
01-27-2010 , 11:15 PM
i think that ultimately you have an OESD + FD and the only way you could grossly **** up the hand would be to misclick fold

what range do we have 67% equity against that he is 3bet/calling here?

if these are serious posts, wtf.
if i see you smooth call this hand and end up seeing your cards, next time when i have AT, JJ+ i this spot im just snap folding, ie good job not getting paid off with a range that has AT JJ+ crushed... if that was a serious post maybe i was leveled.
