Ah....If this is true, you should be playing this +EV situation, since you will make a profit for every bet that goes into the pot.

The problem with that assumption is that you don't know what will happen behind you. Additionally, the equity argument is based on "hot or cold" equity arguments -- you shouldn't be playing a hand here JUST because it's got more than it's fair share of equity. Q9o has 17.5% of the equity here. Do you play it?

Some of the time, this will be +EV. When it's raised, however (especially when you play like this postflop), your error ends up costing you much more than the fraction of a +EV gain you get.

Well sure! Most are recommending fold here for getting 15:1. If the same board falls but it wasn't raised, you wouldn't change it to call now getting 8:1, would you?

But then again you would have folded pre-flop.

no, i'd recommend folding if it wasn't raised behind on the flop. it its raised, you may be drawing to runner-runner two pair or better. if it isn't raised, you may be drawing to 3 outs.

if you mean if there was no PF raise, then a flop call may be warranted b/c you don't fear domination or a raise behind as much.

i just got back from a drinking fest at the local thai place with my friends (yes, i know its 1 in the afternoon), so if I addressed the wrong street, then let me know where the question is.

------------------------------

btw, PF is not worthy of a huge discussion. its a marginal call vs fold situation. i fold b/c i think its unprofitable. on the co/button, i may limp. MP2 is just poor position. fear of domination from the limpers is not my concern at all.
