Fair enough. I was logic-chopping a little different then you. The +EV checkraise is a composite, which is composed of (EV when ahead) + (EV when behind). My idea was to argue you win more when ahead and as a bonus you lose less in the rarer case that you're behind. Whereas you think of it as one +EV flop raise that must be equalled by another line on the big streets in order to be correct.

It's your left brain so I'll defer to your counting system. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Where to does one find the "Clarkmeister Theory" thread?

I think it is overused in a couple situations at games like 10/20 6max. The main one that I see is when you flop an ace from the BB against a blind steal. Let's say the board is A82. Unless the guy has a pair of 8s or 2s, 34, or 45 you are way ahead.

Lmn, I'm not necessarily disagreeing about the WA/WB line, but I don't understand this statement. If I defend with a Ace-rag from the BB, there are a ton of hands I'm way behind: all the better aces. No?

What I was saying was if you are ahead, you are way ahead unless he has those hands.
