Right I have this guy down as loose-passive. and this is the 3rd time I have raised his early limp and both other times he has folded to sandard c-bet. Should I be snapping him off bearing in mind the info I have or is it just a bad spot for calling??

    I fancy a call here as we have so many ways to win even if we are behind now but I don't think it's the end of the world to play cautiously and fold.

    Forget the outs, I think we need to have the best hand already alot of the time to be able to make the call?

    If I know I'm behind 100%, doesn't matter how big my draw is, it's a fold surely?

    Surely you got 9club outs, 4 x 10s (at worst it could make a split) and possibly 3 x Aces if he has KQ/KJ/QJ or a set.

    I think even if you're behind you're still a pretty big favourite most of the time.

    I fold this, still 35bbs at 25/50 and then 17 at 50/100 which is massive, the guy you say is loose passive but now he suddenly wants all his money in RIGHT NOW, most likely has a hand that is ahead here, if he doesn't type well done sir and move on.

    This is closer to a fold than a call in a dym imo at this stage

    If im on my A game i snap fold it.

    If im playing a bit ropey (tilting and trying to get lucky), i might call...

    As I said, playing 9 10off this way in DYM justifies why I had him down as loose-passive. Maybe the shove was great play on his part, as he was worried about all the clubs.

    indeed what is oppo shoving for ?  protection !!

    we should only consider flush live, maybe str draw 

    shoving str/weak flush/set/two pair

    calling off as a dog  (woof woof) or at best flipping is never going to be good - your looking for at least 55% equity in a DYM

    What people forgot about FD's is you may not have the full 9 outs )
    There could be three in the muck for example !

    Sorry but that's a rubbish statement, you can only reasonably work out the number of outs from what you KNOW to not be showing. That's like saying everyone could have folded 106 pre so there's no 10s for the straight, or everyone has folded Q9 pre so you can't hit a set etc, you can't calculate outs like that

    All 9 flush outs could also be right at the bottom of the deck. 

    We could have 0% chance of making a flush :(

    hehehaha

    How about if it's a nine player tables, more chance of outs being in the muck !!
    What about if it HU, more chance of outs being in the deck !!
    You seriously not thought about this !!
    Any why sky poker dish out more beats because it's 6 max !!
    More chance of hitting outs !!
    I may go to area 51 with this insider information :D


    There is actually some truth on what I am saying, just to dismiss it lambert is a bit naive lol

    It's a game of incomplete information so we are best only guessing our outs !!
    If it's a nine player game then surely we can factor this in, can't we )

    Love how people (Lambert) gets a bit shirty with any new suggestions lol
    You MUST do it this way !!
    Like how we say, we have nine outs IT DOESN'T MEAN WE DO !!!!!

    WE DO NOT HAVE EXACTLY 36% - DEAL WITH THE TRUTH !!!
    SOMETIMES IT DOES FEEL LIKE THE WORLD OF PROBABILITY IS FALLING DOWN AROUND US !!

    :D

    And live, the dealer might have burnt one of the outs ;) I know your post is tongue in cheek, but it still doesn't actually make any difference over time :P

    If you have AK, for instance, and your only out is a 10 on the river to make a straight, for example:

    No 10's on board
    No 10's in your hand

    Therefore, 46 cards out there, 4 of which are 10's. Odds of 10 on river = 4/46

    If your opponent has 0 10's, probability of a 10 on the river = 4/44 = 1/11. This will happen (100 x 42/46 x 41/45) percent of the time.

    If your opponent has 1 10, probability of river 10 = 3/44. This will happen (100 x 4/46 x 42/45 x 2) percent of the time

    If your opponent has 2 10's, probablility of river 10 = 2/44 = 1/22. This will happen (100 x 4/46 x 3/45) percent of the time

    ((1/11 x 42/46 x 41/45) + (3/44 x 4/46 x 42/45 x 2) + (2/44 x 4/46 x 3/45)) x 100 = 4/46 ;)

    I'm too lazy to do that for more than 1 opponent, it's 2am, I don't know what I'm really proving other than I'm a nerd and that 4/46 = 4/46 (Over time, whether your opponent holds one of your outs or whether one of your outs has been mucked won't make a difference?), so on that note, I'm off to bed.

    I guess it'd be pretty cool in Omaha if someone tried to represent flopping broadway, and you were sat there with 4 jacks in your hand, and made them fold :P

    Wow I wasnt expecting such a fierce response!!  I have to admit I aint exactly a maths geek and dont pretend to be, but in this situation I know that any club would be good (barring the board pairing). But surely we cant say how many could already be in the muck?! The point is u dont know? How do we know every other oppo didnt fold 2 clubs each, giving me only 1 club to hit??

    Maybe sky should start showing us everyone else's mucked cards, i might start winning a little bit more!!

    what do you think !!

    :D


    Reverse implied odds anyone, same principle but maybe I am taking it a bit too far

    "I think they may be flushing too and I have weak flush so therefore ie. FOLD"


    More cards in the deck increase or decrease the chances of missing ?

    Less cards in the deck decrease or increase the chance of hitting ?

    Just spouting off ---- lol

    feel free to discuss in my absence !!
