are people that are calling the turn calling down? I dare you to find some hand ranges in stove that give us 12% equity.

A LP could have KXs in spades and K8 as well as KQ. He could also have a slowplayed set and are afraid you'll check behind. I haven't done the calculations but I would be surprised if you have odds to continue here.

if you give MP some combos of dumb stuff like TJ, [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], worse Q, maybe even a smaller pair to go along with 2pair and set hands you can easily get >12%. that is including UTG with a range of flush draws, pairs, and discounted sets and 2pairs.

we've all seen passive players make really dumb plays because they suck at poker. a big pot is not the place to make a laydown like this

seriously keep adding hands until you get to 12% and see what a joke it is. post it.

I think my range for UTG here is reasonable


if MP can only have 2pair+;

Board: 2d 8s Qs Kd

oink: 08.565% { AsQc }

MP: 80.461% { 8c8d, 2c2s, 2h2s, KQs, K8s, K2s, Q8s, KQo, K8o, K2o, Q8o }

UTG: 10.974% { 8c8d, 2h2s, AdQd, AsJs, As9s, A8s, As6s, As4s, As2s, KsJs, KsTs, K8s, Ks7s, Ks5s, Q4s+, JsTs, Js9s, J8s, Js7s, Ts9s, T8s, Ts7s, 98s, 9s6s, 86s+, AcQd, AcQh, AdQh, A8o, KhQc, KhQd, KsQc, K8o, Q8o+, J8o, T8o, 98o, 87o }


so oink is in pretty rough shape. but if we add say 1/2 the combos of TJ;

Board: 2d 8s Qs Kd

oink: 19.547% { AsQc }

MP: 66.463% { 8c8d, 2c2s, 2h2s, KQs, K8s, K2s, Q8s, JcTc, JhTh, KQo, K8o, K2o, Q8o, JcTd, JcTh, JcTs, JdTh, JdTs, JhTs }

UTG: 13.990% { 8c8d, 2h2s, AdQd, AsJs, As9s, A8s, As6s, As4s, As2s, KsJs, KsTs, K8s, Ks7s, Ks5s, Q4s+, JsTs, Js9s, J8s, Js7s, Ts9s, T8s, Ts7s, 98s, 9s6s, 86s+, AcQd, AcQh, AdQh, A8o, KhQc, KhQd, KsQc, K8o, Q8o+, J8o, T8o, 98o, 87o }

and I think MPs range is likely wider

CO is a LAG/TAG. Seems ok, not your standard german ABC clone so he prolly has a brain.

I think this fold is just fine if u have a good read. Normally a donk means villain improved, so we have max 5 outs. But some of them may be tainted.

AK is way more likely for MP than JT

yah AK should be in there for sure, but that isn't too many combos (also discounted somewhat due to preflop) and I think other hands we beat should be in there too.

the stove results show that because the 2pair+ hands have relatively few combos, adding even a couple strangely played weaker pairs or draws to villain's hand range increases our equity significantly

edit: clarity

He could have a very wide range of hands, but I'm not too sure Im folding here. I don't think he would call the flop with AK, knowing he's probably drawing very thin, with a queen there figuring someone has KQ or AQ. He could, but I don't see AK as a very possible hand (IMO)

I would call here, folding isn't bad and calling isn't bad IMO. If he had a set, he'd be 3-betting before you did as well.

K8 is possible or any other two pair, but it's not an easy laydown IMO. I would call it down just to see what he has at times too, get a little better read on him. But that's just me.
