Re: Flop: 3d, 4h, Tc
BB could have any ten here since he didn't have to make any VPIP contribution. He could have a smaller pocket pair, a piece of the flop less than a ten or maybe he fancies trying to steal the pot on a relatively unco-ordinated board. He could even be betting a straight draw. I would have thought that a raise was for value here. If the SB folds, that is an added bonus.

[ QUOTE ] BB inherits virtually all of the equity of him folding [/ QUOTE ] Not sure I understand. Please explain this... [/ QUOTE ] If the folding player's hand has 18% equity, when we cause him to fold like .5% of that equity goes to the donator with nothing, another 1% goes to Hero, and the remaining 16.5% goes to BB who has Hero dominated JTo vs. T9s. |

Re: Flop: 3d, 4h, Tc
but how do we determine this bro? In other words, How did you achieve this observation? Reads, experience or a stove exercise?

As a an aside, I like my made up word "pre-buttal," and I think I'll incorporate it into my vocabulary.

BTN is not likely to come along anyways ... and even if he does (he's not raising), and SB and BB are likely to come too so we have a chance to potentially play a bigger pot post flop with all these calls stations reasons to fold to not get into trouble ... but how much fun is that [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |

I would feel a lot better about raising if this guy knew what a 'steal flop' is - or if he would be betting pocket pairs too |
