Default Re: Vulnerable hand in multiway pot...

this reminds me of the overpair hand in SSH too, but IMO your hand is more like AA than JJ in that example. We have a monster made hand and a monster draw and even if there is a flopped flush in the weeds we have a significant equity edge. and there usually isn't a made flush.

also while our hand is vulnerable we will rarely be able to protect it. If someone is sitting out there with a solo J/9 heart I think the best way to get them to fold is to scare the [censored] out them by shoveling chips into the pot. with a hand like that it is rarely a question of pure pot odds but rather trying to determine how often their middling heart will be good.

so keep on truckin
