It seems to me he has at least TPTK

of course it's possible, but not necessarily his minimum holding. even in this game, flop raises can mean alot of things.

Fair enough, I'm probably off on his range. What did you consider his range to be at the time you c/r the turn?

BBB,

thanks for the thoughtful analysis. assuming it gets HU, by your calculations how often does villain need to fold for this to show profit?

[/ QUOTE ]


Assume that you always win on 9 or K and never otherwise; this happens with 8/46 probability. Assume villain will never reraise your c/r.

Your expected loss if he calls is 8/46-38/46 = -30/46 bb.

If he folds you gain his share of the pot: (11.5+2)*38/46 bb

We seek the breakeven point if he folds with probability P:

(1-P)*30/46 = P* 13.5*38/46
30=(30+13.5*38)P
P=~5.5%

So if he folds 5.5% or more often you are OK; if he sometimes reraises your c/r then you need better odds.

I am surprised no one has yet commented on these numbers. I actually calculated the target as 6.7% using similar assumptions, but either way the % where both have to fold is pretty small. So perhaps it is debateable, I don't think the turn raise is spew.

i missed this post completely. at the table i guesstimated 10% for simplicity, knowing it was high.

did you factor in implied odds, rico?

"did you factor in implied odds, rico?"

2BB of implied odds when we hit (turn call and 1 bet on the river)...might be slightly higher with the 3rd opponent in.

Grunch.

This really seems like spewville here James. You're trying to buy a pot from three opponents w/ a weak gutterball. I'm sure your reads are pushing you towards a play like this, but you've described the button as tight, and they've 3-bet you, which is likely a hand that isn't fold on this flop.

I don't like the flop or turn at all, even w/ the high level of thinking I assume is going on here. Just seems like a poor spot to try this.

Just noticed we have a double gutter here. Doesn't change my opinion though.

I think w/ the situation at hand and the two bad players in on the flop, they are your biggest obstacle for this play working because they suck and may call down w/ anything, which forces you to make your straight.

I think just drawing passively is best here. HU, would make much more sense to make this play trying to get the button to drop KK on the turn or something.

Here's my calc

Assumes you are never 3-bet, and collect one additional river bet in either scenario if you hit. You have 8 outs so you win 8/46 = 17.4% of the time.



EV (Calling) = (.174)(13.5) + (.826)(-1) = 1.523

EV (Raising) = 12.5p + (1-p)[(.174)(14.5) + (.826)(-2)]
= 12.5p + (1-p)(.871)
= 11.629p +.871

Setting the two equations equal and solving for p
11.629p + .871 = 1.523
p = .056 or 5.6%

So where did I go wrong?

You give players too much credit. Player trying to play well could easily have a hand like 1010 JJ or KK.
