    With A K blockers:

    { JJ+,AKs,AKo } is 27 combos.

    { KK+,QdQh,QdQs,QdQc,AKs,AKo } is 18 combos.
    So Villain folds (27 - 18)/27 = 33% of the time, and Villain calls (1 - 23%) = 67% of the time

    When Villain calls, you have ~41.18% equity. (note: Hero has diamonds, and I left the QQ combos with Q in for this equity. If I use the other 3 combos, the equity is 41.24%.)

    The EV calculation is
    EV = $2.02*33.33% + ($8.54*41.18% - $6.52*58.82%)*66.67%
    which reduces to:
    EV(no rake) = $0.46
    EV(w/ rake) = $0.31

    ...

    I'm shocked that the blockers make such a huge difference. The "w/ rake EV" more than tripled. Is this right? Did I make a hasty error? I have to split for work, so I can't double check it right now.
