25NL: I Has Two Tens!

[Daniel LeClaire]

Villain min-raised a K high board with KJ. I called him down and won with AK. He might be steaming or trying to look like he is. Otherwise, not many hands on him.

I really, really hate felting smaller overpairs because it seems like I'm never ahead. Maybe for 1/2 a buy-in I should be felting this all day though. I'm getting about 1.8 to 1 on a call.

I'd call.

There are so many draws out there that he could have. I'm sure you have more than the 40% equity or whatever you need to make the call here.

roughly a coinflip against this range, though i might weigh made hands more since he check-raised you instead of donking/check-calling (which people do alot with on the flop with their draws): 99,77,55,AhKh,AhQh,AhJh,AhTh,A9s,Ah8h,Ah6h,KhQh,Kh Jh,J9s,T8s,98s,86s,A9o,J9o,T8o,98o,86o

so, when i weight the range, by giving him much less combos of drawing hands, i get this, which gives you 40% equity.

99,77,55,AhKh,AhQh,AhJh,AhTh,A9s,Ah8h,Ah6h,KhQh,Kh Jh,Js9s,Ts8s,9s8s,86s,A9o,Jc9s,Jd9s,Jh9s,Tc8s,Td8s ,Th8s,9c8s,9d8s,9h8s,86o

actually, i should remove even more of the drawing hands.

my instinct told me when i looked at your hand that you have about 35% equity. so that's a call.

Well unless he's really bad he doesn't call with 68. I can see this being something like Th8h or maybe a set trying to kill draws you might have on a semi-bluff. Th8h makes you a favorite in a 55/45 flip. Additionally, he's a shortstack that is likely to be tilting with something like AK here. I see a bigger overpair reraising from the blinds to avoid going to a flop.

I call.
