Default Re: 150/300 simple preflop

huh. i wrote out a reply but i think i erased it while answering a food question. . .


couple things that are more important than equity:

-- players behind you and their reaction to a 3 bet? can you fold them out if they don't hold A23x or somethign like that?


-- is bad player weak post flop and will fold river if he airballs on the low? or is he loose and will go to showdown with anything?

dream scenario would be, 3 bet to isolate. 3/4 him on a low board and pair 7s wins high.

worst case: 3 bet to isolate and get action around the table. peel all the way to the river and make crying call with sevens up.

somewhere in between: call preflop. try to flop a low draw and perhaps a back door clubs or backdoor set of sevens. make others call down with A3 low. keep the pot small so if you get 1/4, 1/6, it's not that bad.

don't fold.
