AK/TT+

[/ QUOTE ]
why would you call AK and fold 88, 88 > AK

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm just a small stakes lurker but, is this a joke? AK is better because it is only a huge dog to AA,KK, which is discounted because of our blocking cards. where 88 is a huge dog to 99,TT,JJ,QQ,KK,AA. Am I right?

another spot i think you're missing is that your edge over someone like this (in all likelihood) is probably better than +<50$ or -<$100 in EV

waiting for better spots is inane, its either +ev or its not. i really dont understand like 90% of your posts in this thread.

That's just incorrect jfish. I'd rather not go into ramifications because you know them, but the jist is just that you CAN find MORE +EV spots. That is, if he's got 3k and he have 1k, this is SO much closer to a call.
