Default Re: High Stakes Poker thread (11/12 - 500k Buyin - Part 2 Spoilers aho

Against Jamie's actual hand, the EV Patrik gets from the possibility of a king turning is $13,275 (2/45 * $399,500 * 77.3%). The additional EV from an ace turning is close to 5K even without any additional betting, so the call is unquestionably good against KK. Jamie can have other hands, but versus weaker hands (AA or KQ say) Patrik has more kings to hit and Gold will have less outs once Patrik makes the straight, so it will probably work out similarly. If he has air there's the possibility he'll check behind on the turn, or that Antonius might turn a jack and have that be good. It's a fine call but not super obvious the way some are portraying it.
