Some numbers.

There is 1575 in blinds + antes.

(1) If all 3 fold, I win 1600+1600+1575+7975 = <u>12750</u>

(2) If UTG+1 folds / coldcaller folds / Bartley calls...

Assuming Bartley calls w/ JJ+/AK, I'll have roughly 30% equity vs. his range.

Hand 0: 70.168% 69.21% 00.96% 156425952 2171364.00 { JJ+, AKs,

Hand 1: 29.832% 28.87% 00.96% 65255448 2171364.00 { ATs }

(.702-.298)(-25945) + (.298)(1600+1600+1575) = <u>-9059</u>

(3) If UTG+1 calls / coldcaller folds / Bartley folds...

Assuming UTG+1 calls w/ JJ+/AK, again I have ~30% equity vs. his range.

(.702-.298)(-12246) + .298(11150) = <u>-1625</u>

(4) If UTG+1 calls / coldcaller folds / Bartley calls...

Assuming UTG+1 calls w/ JJ+/AK and Bartley overcalls w/ QQ+/AKs.

Hand 0: 71.266% 70.68% 00.59% 87134700 725844.00 { QQ+, AKs }
Hand 1: 28.734% 28.15% 00.59% 34699500 725844.00 { ATs }

The main pot would be 39913. The side pot would be 27398.

.193(39913) + .287(27398) - 25945 = <u>-10379</u>

I ignored when coldcaller calls or when Button/SB/BB calls to simplify things for now.

a(1) + b(2) + c(3) + d(4) = cEV of play, where a/b/c/d are chance of each outcome and a+b+c+d = 1.

I will finish this later assuming a couple different opening ranges for UTG+1 and a couple different squeezing ranges for Bartley.

However, just looking @ this, if "a", % of time all 3 fold, is &gt; 45%, this is a +cEV play.
