Re: Average Hands
Pantsonfire , your goal is to be the favorite when "called" .
You're the favorite against a random hand , but you're not necessarily the favorite when called .
By the way , q-5 is a coin flip heads up and q-7 is more on the plus side .
Watch what happens when the BB restricts his calling range to the top 40% of hands when you have 20 bb's (he has you covered) .
EV(sb) = 1.5*0.6 +0.4*[20.5*.3723 - 19.5*0.6277 ]
= -0.9432
So shoving with q-7 with 20 bb's is negative EV against the BB who calls with the top 40% of hands .
