Open Raise from MP (Poll)

[wheelz]

as i default i fold A7o A6o and 44, raise the rest... well K9o more than half the time at least, i think.

err i also fold JTo

its very very button and co dependent. if they are 50/20 then i am chucking a lot of these. if they are 22/17 then i am raising nearly all.

[flawless_victory]

did anybody vote raise for all 20 hands (besides aggrohushposter and spicymoose)?

just wondering for my own entertainment.
i voted to fold the A6o/A7o/K9o... i usually raise K9o, however, im thinking that it sucks.

im very surprised how A6s is being raised nearly as much as A8o.
I would take A8o everytim over a6s

It is interesting that both of these hands have 59.9% equity against a random hand. Obviously that isn't the whole picture, but I think it shows that these two hands are at least close in value.

Against the top 50% of hands, A6s has 53% equity, while A8o has 54%. 3-handed against two opponents with top 50%, the two also match up quite evenly, with A6s slightly higher.

Although PokerStove isn't the answer, it does show you that these two are pretty similar in equity vs 1 or 2 opponents, and you will be playing similar in both situations. The only difference is that with A6s you will be able to continue after the flop more often because you will have a backdoor flush sometimes. This means you get to realize your equity more often.
