Re: Rainkhan and the 33 versus Alex Kravchenko

In his post bust out interview though Kahn claimed that he had a read on Kravchenko that he was weak on this hand. If you repeat the exercise but make it twice as likely that Kravchenko has the weak half of his range than the strong half this goes from a marginal but probably good play to a clearly good play.

It really makes no difference if you think he's weak. You still have 33. It's a real stretch to put hands like 22 and A2 in the raiser's range no matter what your read is.
I think this was one of the rare situations Phil Gordon got right. Online special, baby.

What's his definition of weak? 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (47.6%) is mathematically not much different than K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (50.8%) vs. 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
I'd also consider 44-66 "weak" too.
