Not necessarily. We're a bit behind any ace here and way behind when he holds the K .

With that having been said, it's still a shove I believe, but mostly because of villain's stack size.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Could somebody explain this hand to me? Do we think he's cbetting w/o an ace or is that fact irrelevant?

Your wording has thrown me off a bit on what you mean here, but if he has an ace without the K , we're still slightly behind.

If i push the flop that means I need to raise his $1 flop bet to $5.25, doesn't that seem like a overbet? I guess if I'm going to raise to $3.50 or $4, I might as well bet the last little bit.

If he has 100BB stack what is your play?

I'm still getting my head around the odds calcuations etc - but yeah, it looks like we're betting another $4.25 to win a total pot of $6.75 if he calls? Assuming we hit our striaght or flush draw? (Assuming we're beat if we only hit a K or Q?)

Can someone explain the math to show this is a correct shove?

raise, call a shove

i say this because we'd raise this flop with a good tp versus a suspected donk and we should do it with all our hands that want to play big pots here.

After Villians bet on the flop, the pot is $2.5, if we push, we have to call his $1 first. That means the pot would be $3.50 and we would put him all in for $4.25 more. If he calls, the total pot will be $3.50 + our $4.25 + his $4.25 = $12, so we need 4.25/12 = 35.4% equity to make this play, (Plus there might be a little folding equity).

Board: As Js 6s
Dead:

equity win tie
Hand 0: 46.680% 45.17% 01.51% { KdQs }
Hand 1: 53.320% 51.81% 01.51% { 88+, AJs+, KQs, AKo } (5%)

Note: I don't claim to be a math expert, and I wanted to exercise my EV calc skills, so if there's something wrong here please let me know!

An ace? This is a pretty scary board, we're putting him to the test here because we have FE against a big part of his range, including some aces I think.

As for 100bb effective stacks... After his 1 and our 1, there's 3.50 in the pot and we have 8.30 behind. Raising 3 more leaves us with 5.3 behind and gives him better than 2:1. Since he's an agro donk we can assume he pushes a fair amount, and we have pretty good odds to call that push. So if we push, we're pushing 9.30 into 2.50 and giving him a bit worse than 3:2. I don't really like committing that much, though I don't think it's all that bad. A call isn't terrible, either. It's close, but I'm like 50/50 on the call or push.

...which makes pushing/raising all that much better because being the aggressor is always more +ev.
Implied threat and all...
