Default Blind Battle Question

Assume a 3 handed 100/200 game online. You are the big blind. Small blind is a solid player but that is all you know about him. Button folds and the hand is played out between you and the small blind (assume you will always both see the flop). Assuming you have each of the following, about what % of the time are you seeing a showdown (if he doesn't fold prior to the showdown)?

1) One pair (either pocket or with a board card)
2) Ace high
3) King high

Thanks,
Cartman

I think the problem is that in PT a lot of your high card call downs are going to count as taking a "pair" to showdown due to a pair being on the board.

It doesn't matter at all to me if it is 3 handed. I'm also not really looking for data as much as I am people's general thoughts or approaches. For instance, one might be "100% get to the showdown with any pair, 85-90% get to the showdown with Ace high, 60-70% get to the showdown with King high".

I would guess like 90% going to SD with any pair, 50-60% goign to SD with ace high, and 30-40% going to SD with K high. The more coordinated a board develops into, the less likely I'm calling down with A or K high.

Some people play more aggro though. Folding out players before showdown. Seems tough to check with pt. You would probably see how often you win with certain hands and do some clever statistics merging.

I'm also curious how often these showdowns would involve calling bets on both the turn and river?
