![]() So as a starting point, shoving is profitable even if the villain calls the shove with his entire range. For example, I gave villain 50% weight of his combo of AKcc.Īgainst the range above, even accounted for some slowplayed sets, JTcc has 56% equity. Note the new feature in PokerCruncher, the ability to have weighted combos of individual hands. So when constructing the villain's checkraising range, I left in many more combos than I ordinarily would assign. Cardner about what the villain's check raising range looks like, she noted that several times throughout the session he has done so with middle pair type hands. Once villain makes a fairly large checkraise, here is where things get interesting. ![]() When the flop comes Qc5c8s and the hero is checked to, she has a very clear bet - she has no showdown value and significant equity against the villain's checking range. Our hero calls on the button with JTcc and she sees the flop heads up. PokerCruncher says I’d have 18.07% equity against all combos of AA.Based on Tricia Cardner's explanation of the player, his range in early position isn't going to be too out of line, but likely a little bit looser than optimal in a tougher 5/10 game, so I gave him 12.5% of hands with the hands on the margins being weaker suited aces, and midding suited connectors and suited one gappers. Does he really think me or the small blind could have anything less than JJ given the action so far? He’s gotta think we would call with most of those hands. I had a tight image, so I was a little surprised, but he was a good player, and it makes sense to me that he would obviously call with 1010+, AK, and maybe some suited broadways.įolds to me. Small blind, good aggressive player, calls. Above average raise size for this game, but not crazy. UTG, a loose aggressive player, raises to $15. Does it ever make sense to fold KK preflop? Now let’s look at another example: calculating a pre-flop calling decision. Overall, I think I should have either c-bet or check raised all in on the flop. I was somewhat surprised he double barreled, but again given my previously passive play and the fact that I could easily be on a flush draw, I don’t blame him. But given he had just won a large pot from me, had position, and probably had me figured out since I had been playing so straight forward throughout the session, I don’t blame him. I was surprised he called pre-flop given my tight image. Pot odds are pretty close to my equity and I have plenty of outs. The pot is $91 + my remaining $78 = $169. If I take out the QJ open ended straight draws, I’m down to 29.07% equity. With this range, I’m down to 33.93% equity. I estimated his range as shown on the right side of the screenshot below to see what my equity would be: At this point, the only information I have about villain’s hand is that it was good enough to call my pre-flop raise. I have the nut flush draw and two over cards. The cut off, a pretty loose player, calls. UTG +2 (villain), a good, aggressive player, calls. $12 was only a slightly above average pre-flop raise for this game though. That was the largest pre-flop raise that I had made in this session, aside from a re-raise that I made and then folded after getting re-raised. I had a pretty good image though - lost a few small pots but won more mid-size pots. I believe I only double barreled once over the course of about four hours. I had been playing very tight in this session but also fairly passive. I’m the short stack (after losing $90 on the previous hand) Calculating equity of overcards and flush draw Here’s a tutorial on how to use PokerCruncher to analyze hand histories with examples from $1/2 cash games. It’s similar to Flopzilla and PioSolver, but those programs don’t work on macs. PokerCruncher is an equity calculator for mac.
