all-in odds question
 
i witnessed this in a cash game tonight and there was a debate, so i'm letting 2+2 clear it up.

3-handed 5/10 NLHE
SB (215) posts 5
BB (~1500) posts 10
button (~1200) straddles to 30
SB re-straddles to 50 (not even sure if that's legal)
BB raises in the dark to 215, putting BB all-in
button folds
SB has 76o -- what's the right play?

Much worse than average hand and likely disproportionally small pot equity relative to the other people in the hand having an average range of hands.

What do you do, given that?

This is a joke right?

Am I on TV right now?

Is that teddy bear really a camera?

$165 to win $275 seems nice. But 76o is such a piece of crap. If I wouldn't mind if someone took $165 out of my wallet and set it on fire, I'd go for it.

Me...I'd fold.

So the question is whether to pay $215-$50=$165 to win $215+$30+$50=$295?
One would need an equity of 165/(295+165)=.359, not counting the rake.

Since 67o's equity is about .423 this is an easy call, EV+ about $30.

That seems like an awfully large equity considering your opponent, heads-up, is going to be holding an overcard better than 75% of the time.

BB raised in the dark, so he is holding a random hand.
