Default Re: A8o in the BB: Figuring out this Commitment Threshold/Planning thi

i don't feel like writing out good numbers, but the gist of it is this: if you think your hand is good 80% of the time on the turn, but that's because 60% of the time (60% of all the time not of that 80%) he is on a spade draw... then when the spade hits on the river you are only good 20% and are thus no longer committed to put the remaining 235 in as you are not getting proper odds on a 5:1 shot. i know my numbers are terrible but i hope i got my point across
