oh so drawy
 

Villan is 21/19, pretty aggro. I feel like this is a fold or push spot with all the draws, probably colser to a fold than a push. Whats up?

I think what most people do with this depends on how they're running

I fold like a pansy though

Re: oh so drawy
 

i think this is a standard fold

Re: oh so drawy
 

If you are never calling with a straight then you need to fold.

you only have a hundred bucks in the pot, just fold, either you're crushed or your flipping a coin a lot, and there's a lot of hands you have like no FE against

dont think it matters how much I have in the pot. Matters what my equity is

Re: oh so drawy
 

ez fold

Re: oh so drawy
 

what's interesting is that i would always shove 78 here without thinking much about it (though it's not that clear cut, i just don't fold two pair) and i woudl usually-ish fold A9 here.

they're so close in value with villian's range, i'm surprised i'm not more murky on both of them.

the only real difference is elimination cards, which i guess is somewhat/fairly crucial

yeah but doesnt 78 fair worse against somethink like 9T than A9? Need to plug in some ranges..

Re: oh so drawy
 

yeah its what I thought. A9 is 58% equity against 9T whereas 7s8s is 51% equity.
