Can we include A8s, 98s, and 22-77 to his range? Don't most donks with these stats overvalue tp, put you on overcards, etc? If we are calling the turn raise, isn't pushing most rivers getting value from some of these marginal hands he will check behind?

Also, did a search but results were all over the place, what exactly is the baluga theorum?

Villains don't raise your turn bets with draws.

No baluga theorem= villains don't raise your turn bets with flush draws, straight draws, etc. and if you have 1 pair it's an easy fold.

Default Re: Baluga theorem in action?

what does X/X/X mean or X/X when people give stats?

VP$IP/PF Raise X/X or what?

I use PO so my default 3 numbers are SeenFlop%/Preflop Raise%/# of Hands. Not sure what the default PT one is.

Is he donkish enough to have played a 5X hand?. Since its a paired flop, not sure about the baluga theorem here due to flop texture.

It means vpip/pf raise.

Since most of you aren't folding, what's the best line to take, shove or call?

I'm def not folding vs. this villain..

I'd probably just shove, but calling and calling any river bet would work too.
