Calldown against two

Preflop: I usually cap here. You have an equity edge and you would really like to push CO out of this big pot.

Flop: Raise. Your hand is likely best, but vulnerable. The pot is big.

Turn: Yuck! Call and re-evaluate on river.

River: call, hoping he has 55,77-99, or is overplaying some overs.

I don't have a problem with a preflop cap, but here's a couple of points I'd like to make:

1. I don't have pokerstove, but I would imagine our edge preflop is pretty small against two opponnets even with wide ranges.

2. I don't mind giving up that small edge to exploit our relative postion to the PF three bettor after the flop when we can get a better sense of how strong our hand is.

I may be wrong, and our PF equity may be too strong to not three-bet. (Someone will probably post a pokerstove at some point.) I do think our relative position here has some value though.

cap all day, fold never unless it's like 2 back to you on the overcard turn. Against more reasonable villains, a call is fine as SB is leading 100% of flops and facing villain B with 2 cold is goot.

Wow, was I ever wrong. Against CO raising 25% of hands, and SB 3betting 17 percent of hands, we're looking at like 42 percent equity against thier (rather tight) ranges. Gotta cap here against anyone, thight, loose, whatever. Even with 99, we're looking at 38% equity, so we've probably got to cap. 88 is like 36 percent equity, so then we can look at just calling the 3bet and taking a flop.
