I show K9 top pair.
CO mucks..... MHIG. no way of knowing on Pacific what he had i reckon 2 clubs like JT or something, or a badly slow-played pocket pair.

I was shocked to see the chips coming my direction after the flop action, though.

nah, gamblers like to speculate. its not at all surprising people go nuts on the flop, when its cheap to do so. now if you got caught in a raising war on the TURN and the RIVER was a king i'd suspect youd be dead.

which = fold out 3rd best hand or protect your (best) hand (if you are behind and ahead respectively) to increase overall equity (on turn); increase possibility your pair outs are good (on flop)

Default An analysis of raising vs calling the turn and conclusion

you made me do a math analysis on this you chip spewer [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I apologise in advance for the formatting. basically each 2 (or 3 including a zero for fold) represent raise/call/fold and losing is first set and winning is second line.
Conclusions at bottom.

am behind to made straight 20% lose 3 lose 2
lose -2.43 -1.62 0
win 3.23 2.66 0

raise call fold
am behind to two pair/set 50% -2.49 -1.66 0
2.89 2.66 0

raise call fold
am ahead but against oesd 10%
lose -0.459 -0.34 0
win 12.035 10.375 0


am ahead but vs a better flush 5%
lose -0.95 -0.57
win 11.745 9.72


am ahead of hands drawing @/near dead inc lower flush 5%
lose 0 0 0
win 14.5 12.5 0


am ahead of lower pair 10%
lose -0.215 -0.129
win 13.775 11.4

EV of raising = +5.38335
EV of calling = +4.7511

Relevant assumptions : pot becomes about 17BB with me raising, about 14 BB with me not. I presumed that open ended straight draws fold 10% of the time to a turn raise and flush draws didn't fold at all, that lower pairs fold for 2 cold but the turn raise gets called sometimes by one other player.

It's all a bit scratchy but the bottom line is that calling is better if I'm up against 2pair/a set/straight but raising is far better if I'm ahead with the pair of Kings.

If these figures are anywhere near correct I have to believe I'm up against set/straight/2pair over 90% of the time for a call to be correct. And I would say only 70-75% for the action in this hand.
