    Reads:-

    Mucker - loose as a goose his hand could vary from 510 to 26hearts lol, he was limping every pot regardless of position or hand etc.. so not too worried about his range.

    Sevlow - fairly tight, he had made a few squeeze plays identical to this prior & I had raised exact amount but with not such a strong holding to whihc he folded, so I thought he was being stubborn..

    my thinking is Im defo against a jack (mucker) and sevlow got huge draw with loads equity..so do i call?

    Say whattt???

    It's gonna end up being like £19 to win £90 odd?

    If he thinks he's up against a strong combo draw it's definitely a call...

    If we are somehow ahead on this flop, surely it's only ever so slightly ahead? Think 1010 and JJ are very feasible holdings for one of them, and any combo draw is likely to have overcard equity as well.

    I'd snap one but vs 2....

    Just seen the last line about thinking of being up against a J and a combo draw....if that's your read then yeah stick the money in :)

    Yeh were not exactly fist pumping if btn rolls over 89hh etc but it's still a call given the pot odds.

    I would expect btn to flat with 10's or J's to keep 'loose goose' in as well...

    So we need 22.4% equity to call (we need to call £19.30 to win a pot of about £86, 19.3/86 = 22.4)

    Use PPT or pokerstove and input some ranges. Sevlow is 1st in the list, mucker is 2nd and Hero is 3rd

    board: JhTh5s
    HandEquityWinsTies
    AA, KhQh, AhKh, AhQh, JJ, JsTs65.52%5,569,58833,222
    AJ-8J, AT-8T, KQ, 89, Q919.20%1,599,52074,790
    QQ15.28%1,269,91665,591

    Based on this it seems a clear fold. If we get rid of JJ in sevlow's range we only have 16.3% and still a clear fold. If we get rid of AA but keep in JJ we have 21% and it's still just a fold. Only if we get rid of AA and JJ and put sevlow solely on draws and 1 JTs combo do we have 29% equity and enough to call.

    Messing about with mucker's range doesn't change anything much at all - even if I add in any 5x our equity stays the same. So it's mostly about what sevlow can have. Sevlow could also have KK and TT (and perhaps more JTs) but I thought sometimes he 4-bets with KK and sometimes flats flop with a set. But if he did have these hands then our equity would be even lower.

    So yeah, it's a fold. We'd have to be almost certain that sevlow only has a draw or JT here for a shove to be correct. Given sevlow showed up with AA and not a draw then that was obviously not the case. btw - what was your reasoning for thinking sevlow had a draw and not a made hand?

    Considering Sevlow is 150bb effective and ip vs hero imo the range you have assigned him is too tight. I would assume they would defend any Axhh and play it post the same way.

    Think our equity goes up slightly if we include FD's for Mucker as well?

    Closer than I thought tbh when I first saw the HH.
