Re: 77 against a steal
I think this is another example of a preflop equity edge raise that blows up in your face.
I think it is the wrong hand against wrong villain to make this raise preflop.
1.Your chance to improve your hand is not great.
2.He is never going to fold a better hand postflop
3.When behind you´re going to lose more bets than when ahead.
4.As seen in this hand it is easy for you to end up in situations where you easily could make the wrong decision.
I would go so far that even a call preflop and check/calling all streets has a better chance to make more money than a preflop raise.
As played on flop you still have 52% equity against his hand.That means that a bet is not correct if you think that you always get 3-bet by better hands and seldom by worse hands.But If you don´t bet you risk giving freecards.
But who is check/calling a flop after 3-betting preflop and how much does it cost if he takes the freecard?
