Default Re: QQ from upfront early in Warmup...Is this ok?

[ QUOTE ]

The way to test if a criteria is logical is to isolation test it. You can't involve other criteria, such as hero somehow magically deducing at a decision point that a re-raise is going to occur. (And this is exactly what hero would need to deduce to correctly calculate his reverse implied odds.)


[/ QUOTE ] What. You make a judgement call as to the likelyhood of getting reraised. There's nothing magical about it, it's based on prior experience in similar situations with similar factors. Good players can come up with a very close approximation of how often this will happen. Obviously if we had no idea what the likelyhood of other people's future actions are, we couldn't use the analysis that we do. But this is not the case.
