Default Re: Turning Stone 550 ESPC, Bad Spot with Huge Draw

[ QUOTE ]
I don't understand why people say folding or calling is better than pushing. You are 42% against a straight, 39% against a set, and 54% against aces up. You have any combo draw crushed. If it is 3-way allin, you have to be in good shape. If Ansky folds, you get pot odds.

Pushing is not hugely cEV+, but I can't see how any play is better. Calling and folding some turns is ridiculous.

Because calling does exactly what shoving does -- except it lets you make a decision with more information (and therefore a better decision) on the turn.
