Set value VS Stacks
When should you play a low/medium pp for set value and stacking villian? I think there are 3 main criteria.
1. Position I recommend being in position. You don’t want to call another raise behind you after you call a bet preflop. 2. Stats What stats should a player have to be able to stack him? Please discuss. 3. Stacks What are the chances of flopping a set with a pp? It’s 8.3-1 (10.8%) We hit our set 1 out of 8.3 times. So villain’s stack must be at least 10.8 * pf bet to make this +EV. If (10.8 * pf bet) < villian’s stack &#61664; -EV. If (10.8 * pf bet) > villian’s stack &#61664; +EV. Am I right about this? It might be intresting for new players?

Re: Set value VS Stacks
There's a ton of posts on this already, probably somewhere in the stickies.
Search for the 5-10 rule and use it as a general guideline |

[/ QUOTE ] It's not all that important, especially because you used the right percentage, but you hit your set 1 in 9.3 times. The fact that you are 8.3-1 means you will hit once for every 8.3 times you miss. Don't mean to nitpick, but odds are a very fundamental and important part of the game and don't want anyone seeing that and doing odds calculations wrong in the future. |

Re: Set value VS Stacks
Seeing as we are nit picking..
A set or better - 8.51/1 (11.76%) ODDS: 8.51 to 1. CHANCES: 1 in 9.51. PERCENT: 11.76%. MATH: 1-[(48/50)*(47/49)*(46/48)] I am bored. |
