    Default 2-pair + flush draw on turn

    Consider villian's range to be 72o - AA at $25NL

    Board:


    Hero holds:


    Deep stacked, facing a 100BB+ shove, how often are we shipping it in?

    Things to consider:
    villain has a made straight
    villain has a set
    villain has a better 2-pair/worse 2-pair
    villain has nut flush draw
    villain has AK
    villain has second/third pair or a total bluff

    against a straight we have 4 outs to a boat, 9 outs to the flush, none of which could be spades since we already hold those two cards, so we have 13 outs with 46 cards left in the deck, that's 28.2% to win
    against a set of 8s, we need a king or ten or a spade, which is 28.2%
    against a set of queens or tens we need a flush or a king only which is 2 + 9 cards = 11 outs which is 23.9% to win
    against a set of kings we can only get a flush to win, which is 9 outs = 19.6% chance to win
    against a KQ we have a ten or flush draw = 23.9% to win
    against another KT we need 9 cards to win, otherwise we draw, 19.6% to win, 80.4% to tie - 59.8% equity
    against K8 he needs an 8 to win, we win 95.7% of the time
    against the nut flush draw he has 9 cards to win, we have 80.4% chance to win
    against AK he needs a non-spade A to win, of which there are two in the deck, we win 95.7% of the time
    against second pair he needs a queen to win it, which is 95.7% the time our pot
    pair of eights needs another 8, we win 97.8% of the time
    a total bluff is drawing dead, we win 100% of the time

    we're shipping it in if we can put our villain on the bottom part of the range you just gave

    if the villain only plays two pair+ here I think we have to fold unless pot odds dictate a call

    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from
    If I'm at the Turn, and villains range is that wide, he's uber-retarded...

    so I ship it in pretty much 100% of the time 'cause he's gonna have bullsh!t far more often than he has any of the things that beat me.

    This is a great post and I like the way you layed it out. However, I wish there was a way to include the total per centage of his chance of hitting.

    in ur accounts... confiscating ur funz
    equity in iopqs post is assuming that there is not a cent in the pot on the turn... which seems to be the case as far as we know.
    The strengh of a hero is defined by the weakness of his villains.

    There is no HH. This hand popped in my hand the other night so I posted it here to get some feedback on different people here would play it.

    wellrounded is right...results may vary depending on previous action, so trying to figure out what to do with this hand without further information is useless. If this is an example you just made up, you might as well think of the preflop-flop action and post it

    Well, it's still a good exercise to figure out what the odds are against possible villain's holdings

    It is. I agree. It wouldn´t answer OPs question "how often are we shipping it in?" without a range for villain, but it is a nice exercise.

    = the reason I posted this.

    Villain's wide open range combined with this situation asks what types of hands can villain show us and still make the call.

    This pretty much nailed it:

    against a straight we have 4 outs to a boat, 9 outs to the flush, none of which could be spades since we already hold those two cards, so we have 13 outs with 46 cards left in the deck, that's 28.2% to win
    against a set of 8s, we need a king or ten or a spade, which is 28.2%
    against a set of queens or tens we need a flush or a king only which is 2 + 9 cards = 11 outs which is 23.9% to win
    against a set of kings we can only get a flush to win, which is 9 outs = 19.6% chance to win
    against a KQ we have a ten or flush draw = 23.9% to win
    against another KT we need 9 cards to win, otherwise we draw, 19.6% to win, 80.4% to tie - 59.8% equity
    against K8 he needs an 8 to win, we win 95.7% of the time
    against the nut flush draw he has 9 cards to win, we have 80.4% chance to win
    against AK he needs a non-spade A to win, of which there are two in the deck, we win 95.7% of the time
    against second pair he needs a queen to win it, which is 95.7% the time our pot
    pair of eights needs another 8, we win 97.8% of the time
    a total bluff is drawing dead, we win 100% of the time
