You need to make a lot of more bets postflop getting 16.5:4. To calculate how many bets you need to make multiply 1:10 with 4 (the number of bets you need to put in the pot). You get 4:40.

To put these numbers in some kind of context the final pot you win need to be: 16.5SB + 4SB = 20.5SB (preflop) 23.5SB + ~8SB = 31.5 (postflop) Total: 52SB On 3/6 which I usually play that would equal 156$. I know this is a poor comparision, but the biggest pot I've ever won was 161$, 2nd biggest 146$. I find it hard to assume a average pot on 156$ just because of heavy preflop aggression. |

Re: 99

That you are still 3 headed on the river just makes this even more obvious; you only have to be ahead more than 1/3 to make this profitable. Do you seriously think you are behind here more than a third of the time? [/ QUOTE ] You're making things too simple. If UTG+1 holds a hand like AQ[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] you need to be ahead about 60% of the time to bet. |

Re: 99
Yes. and IMO you are ahead here 90%+ of the time.

Re: 99
Let me overgeneralize here.
When I flop a set, and no reasonable draws come in, I am capping every. single. street. Especially if I still have 2nd set by the river. If this is a leak, it certainly isn't my biggest one. jvs |

[ QUOTE ] also, if you think you are good on the turn, what has changed for the river? if you cap the turn, your hand hasn't changed since the turn [/ QUOTE ] I didn't cap the turn. I think a lot changes when a fishy player caps the turn after I capped the flop and lead/3-bet the turn. [/ QUOTE ] I hate the term fish and playing fishy. Some use "playing fishy" for a player that are playing strange in some kind of way (maybe at random). I assume the opponent is loose/passive.

I agree there are times he hits his set and still loses just wanting to know how you came up with this number. |

Re: 99
I missed the poster and somehow forgot about the SB. It should look like this (assuing UTG+1 calls every time):
Lets assume UTG calls 100% of the time, then the odds we're getting to call is 18.5:3.5. The odds against making a set is 1:7.5 and the chance of hitting it and that it holds up about 1:10. Important to notice is that 18.5:3.5 isn't the same thing as 5.3:1. You need to make a lot of more bets postflop getting 18.5:3.5. To calculate how many bets you need to make multiply 1:10 with 3.5 (the number of bets you need to put in the pot). You get 3.5:35. Then substract 18.5 from 35 and you get 16.5. You need to make 16.5SB postflop when you hit your set. To put these numbers in some kind of context the final pot you win need to be: 18.5SB + 4SB = 22.5SB (preflop) 16.5SB + ~6SB = 22.5 (postflop) Total: 45SB The 1:10 number is a number someone came up with (Sklansky?) that have been accepted for estimating how often a set holds up. Given the previous raise, 3-bet, cap it should probably be a little higher for this hand as the risk of hitting and losing is greater. Even though I missed some crucial information I think the preflop call is pretty slim, but might be correct. |
