Default Re: Big draw OOP against a possible steal

Sorry for prolonging this tiresome discussion. I'm not trying to annoy you, I just want to learn.

First of all I think your EV calculation is wrong as JaxUp already stated. You're comparing the EV of your bet to the EV of the entire hand up until now in the case you check. If I'm wrong here I would appreciate to be corrected.

It's only -EV to have bets going in if it's HU at the turn.

If we follow Entity's advise it boils down to this. Do you think someone else (preferably in EP) will bet this flop if you check? Do you think someone will raise you with no callers between the 2 of you if you bet? If the answer to any of these questions is yes then you should check, otherwise you should bet. This is probably an overly simplistic interpretation of Entity's advise but it's the way I understand it. Please explain to me where I'm wrong.

By the way, how can you agree that we want bets to go in and at the same time be happy to see this get checked through?
