Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

easy shove imo, you beat a lot of hands

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

fine, it could be a lower pair or maybe a flush draw enough for this to be good

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

kinda sucks because this flop hits a huge part of his range after limp/calling utg

but i think you cant get away from it..

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

i play it the same, yeah. he might have a set or straight, but also in his range would be fd, sd, fd+overs, fd+sd, bluff, 66+ (although 88/99/etc would probably just call)...

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

Standard shove for me... he could have plenty of draws and lower pocket pairs.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

not easy shove but I think it's the best you can do.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

Yep i think so.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

let me start off by saying i generally HATE posts that say "look i soved it, you must fold, or oohh oohh, must call!!!", but im doing this jsut to give an idea of villains range and what youre most likely looking at.

also, dont you have a better read than "25/13"?
anway, shoving is standard i guess, but vs lots of players its really not that great. his raise sizing makes me think he has set much more often than a combo draw, but youre not in great shape either way.

i think this is a fairly accurate range for villain, and again i think he raises his sets/2prs/strts with a much higher frequency than his combo draws, but theres not really a good way to weight rangs with pokerstove.

and villain is obv never folding, so dont even consider that

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

also if you were deeper id be perfectly fine just folding the flop

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

I prob shove but I think you're going to run into a set a decent amount of the time.

is there a reason you left out so many other over-card/flush draws? Would it change the results much?

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

i left them out because becaue i felt like they were really unlikely. it wouldnt change the results much anyway, but i think including all combos of 56s and 66/77 for exapmle, balance out the rare times he ever limps PF and then ch/r's huge with a hand like TJdd or KQdd.

Sure he isn't folding, but lol @ villain not ever having 88-JJ, or any non-nut flush draws, or any non-combo-draw flush draws. Your range is just ridiculous. Try:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 50.478% 48.28% 02.20% 48751 2222.00 { 22+, AdKd, AdQd, AdJd, AdTd, Ad9d, Ad8d, Ad7d, Ad6d, A5s-A4s, A2s, KdQd, KdJd, QdJd, QdTd, JdTd, Jd9d, Td9d, Td8d, 9d8d, 9d7d, 8d7d, 76s, 54s, 43s }
Hand 1: 49.522% 47.32% 02.20% 47785 2222.00 { QhQs }


...and that did not include ONE SINGLE BLUFF.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

i think your erange is way too wide to be honest, and dont forget that villain ALWAYS checkraieses his monsters but he may or may not ch/r his draws/bluffs.

so the frequencies are copmpletey off and you need to weight that range with how often he would actually play each hand that way.


this is EXACTLY why i made the disclalimer about hating pokerstove posts

Well, then pokerstove isn't the problem, lol. If 2 people agree on a range, then pokerstove tells you EXACTLY whether shoving is good here. No more, no less.

OF COURSE you should fold if villain's range is 2pair or better + draws that have 50% equity. [censored] DUH. We don't really need Pokerstove for that. But that range is tight enough to crack a walnut.

A 25/13's range both for limp-calling preflop and for over-playing a drawy 345 flop is WAY wider than that. Arguably wider than my range. My range doesn't include a single pure bluff, it's all overpairs, 2 pairs, the nuts, and VERY GOOD draws. Not one weak draw or any bluff with overcards, etc.

And my range even includes hands like KK and AA that have you crushed.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

ya i understand all that. my point is only that i dont think he actually plays hands such as TT of KJdd for exmple, that way very often at all. i think when he ch/r the flop he usually has a set or a strt.

Back when I started NL, I was a classic bad 25/13.

Flop c/r with any flush draw was fantastically standard for me, because all the l33t players told me to play draws like sets. Mostly, players like this are not very passive post-flop in general and I am not sure why you expect them to be.

Re: QQ overpair low-drawy flop
 

ok, you almost have me convinced... but just knowing villain is 25/13 (over what sample size, etc?) without a single other read, doesnt mean hes super donk aggro postflop

maybe fulltilt plays different, but i still play these stakes lots, and lately on Stars this line from a tagfish isalmsot always a monster.
