Re: 55 - Party 15/30 - All decisions bad?
I basically agree with Stox in this thread. The turn will go check-check a good chunk of the time, and you will get a cheap showdown.
However, this got me to thinking about the fact that when I...

Re: Question about SK hand rankings
I remember there was a guy who tried to do this about a year ago. It was on the poker theory forums, but I can't seem to find it right now. As far as I remember, he didn't even finish it for the case...

Re: Question about SK hand rankings
Sure. You could use some kind of ICM evaluation instead. It wouldn't be even be that hard.
But I'm kind of skeptical of the value. Chances are that your opponent's estimates of your hand range are...

Re: Question about SK hand rankings
It sure looks like you have it exactly right, except I set up the problem with blinds of 1 and 2 instead of 1/2 and 1. Multiplying 477 by 2 gives 954, which is basically the value listed.
I think...

Re: Success rate for check raises on the turn
These are fun stats to play with, but probably won't be particularly useful by themselves. Once you take into account preflop and flop action, and perhaps board cards, now you can start making some...

Re: 3 handed 22
If it really is dead even according to ICM then the fact that you have the button next hand (3-handed) should push you to fold.
I originally thought the answer to this problem would be to call...

Re: favorite probability problems
fnord had it right - you can do better by letting N/e of the prizes go by and then picking the first one that's better than any of the others. In fact, N/e is optimal for the strategies of that type....

Re: favorite probability problems
Yeah, this is a good one. I always knew it as the "best prize problem" or the "most beatiful woman" problem. (prizes/women are being displayed to you and you have to pick the best one).

Re: what to do with top two?
Come on Dynasty, this isn't a 3-6 game where he's being called with QJ because there's a backdoor straight draw.
Nevertheless, I think you have to bet. It seems that he's about equally likely to...

Since A has the option to check, his non-worst hands have some chance to win if he doesn't bluff - hence the "bluff with your worst hands" type of solution common to these types of problems.
