Re: all-in - draw?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I think this is such an easy fold. A check-raise all in to a raise and a re-raise from the person that did not even raise it up pre flop. If that is not strength I dont know what is. I feel you are beat here most of the time. I would be interested knowing more about why people think this is a good call. I would say this is a bad call withought a read. [/ QUOTE ] Scrapper, you are beat here most of the time. That isn't the point. Thhe question is: are you good 38% of the time? [/ QUOTE ] I dont tend to ask myself if I am beat a % of times. I tend to ask myself if I am beat period. |

Re: all-in - draw?
obviously he wouldnt fold in that spot. I tend to agree with scrapper. On such a slightly +EV play that has so much variance, and actually guarantees you losing the majority of the time i would advocate folding, unless you really like big swings and hope that everyone else at the table sees your call. Still i really dont see the point in calling when you can still get away relatively cheaply.

Re: all-in - draw?
Well, you're right. He could have a set. But I think it's more likely he's on a super draw. Why would he bet all in? It seems like he is trying to end the hand with the all in. I see this mostly when an aggressive player is on a draw and knows if he gets called, he has a good draw to his monster.
So, yah. You can't totally eliminate a set. But that's my thinking. |

[/ QUOTE ] I put him directly on a strait. Maybe not the nut strait. He is protecting his hand from the flush draw and higher strait draws. I am not the greatest hand reader but this is what jumped out at me. |

[/ QUOTE ] To be clear, I'm speaking about the situation where we are sure that we are 43% to win against villain. Just to reference my admittedly arbitrary figures, Hero was 43% to win against villain's range. Given that hero only needs to be good 38% of the time, this is not really that marginal. 5% is no joke. As long as you are adequately bankrolled, 5% is an advantage that you should be taking every time. |

Re: all-in - draw?
That would mean he stayed in with Q10. Not totally out of the question, but a very loose call IMO, when facing the raises. But with this loose table, maybe you're right.

Re: all-in - draw?
Honestly I think the range shrinks when the first person checks, there is a raise, then a huge re-raise, then the first person who is also a large stack moves all-in. A small stack moves in I call. The pre flop raiser moves all in I call. I call an all-in with top 2 the vast majority of the time. I am taking everything into consideration when I am folding here. Including that I might have the best hand.
