Default Re: 2 pair

The equity is higher on 2 3 board because :
a)you took 2 cards out of the deck so probability of 3 following hitting your hands is higher than with 48card deck (here you are dealing 3 more cards from 46 instead of 48 , you removed 2 "useless" cards from the deck)
b)sometimes 23456 straight tie the board.

a) is more important by a lot;

Thanks. Yet there's no software that calculates equity until the flop or turn, no?

What do you mean by equity by flop or turn ? Dealing only 3 or 4 cards ? I can make my program to calculate "equity" with only 3 or 4 cards board pretty easily but what would be use for that ?

It would be at least somewhat useful to be able to know how often I will outflop a certain range with any given hand. For example whether it's +ev to call a raise preflop with 75s getting 16:1 implied odds when the pfr is a nit.
For pure setvalue we need at least like 12:1 implied odds, for 2pair+ we will need like ...?

Yeah - basically that's the only question bugging me about this.


What's the general purpose of your program?

Yeah taht will be done in official release. All questions of "how often range X flop better hand than range Y " will be answered.

"What's the general purpose of your program?"

It will calculate EV of diffrent strategies. For example in our case you can specify the following :
-stacks 1000$
-preflop raise to 40$ with range of TT+, AQ+
-caller calls with 7s6s
-on the flop raiser always makes continuation bet
-you push with two pair+ or combo draw;
-preflop raiser calls with top pair or better but folds rest

The program will answer the question what is EV of that play (the answer for that specific case is -35$ which shows taht calling and waiting for the nuts is not the brightest idea).
It will also answer any question of "how often something flop something or turn something or river somethign" kind.
