Re: Calling Equity? late 20/180

You'd think you had to be be up against similar ranges in the K9o hand. K9o runs into too many wrong-end 60/40's and is easily dominated otherwise. At the best, you're hoping to flip pairs lower than 88 OR dominating something. That doesn't mean you call here.

Agree, but what if the factors surrounding the hand conspire to convince me that he is making a move, using the seemingly omniprescient "I'd rather move allin with 72 than call w/ K9" pervasive crutch.

The key to the Q8 > AT hypothetical is first-in vig, because you can tick a few points of FE into the factors.

Aha. But AT still beats Q8 more than 50/50, whereas my K9 is a 25% hand (albeit BARELY) and there is a very very very good chance that the shortstack is making a move and leaning on the FE crutch (because he IS a good player and would be aware of using first in vig with 'any two')
