Re: Troubling decison playing a trash hand early in low buyin mtt
[ QUOTE ]
I used to think this was an easy fold. However, I'm getting 3.43:1 pot odds. So I only need about 23% equity in the hand to come out even money. There's also the added ev of likely having the biggest stack at the table for some time to come and the impact on blind stealing.

That equity you're figuring out is after seeing all 5 cards, and includes times you have the best hand w/ like a pair of 4's, times when you won't be aggressive w/ your hand and won't actually win. PF equity when you're nto going all in is really useless.
You're 29:1 against to make two pair or better w/ non-suited, non-connectors... But since you have a suited 3 gapper i guess the odds would be a bit better in your favor, but not too dramatically.. probably like 20:1.
That said, i probably complete this PF, but i'm not so sure you should.
