also, we can think about fold equity to add stength to our hand.. lets say we are in the above example as the pre flop raiser and were called by the button who is an agressive player who we know is positionally aware..
We make a continuation bet with our OESD and the button raises. Buttons range may contain a Q,J, weak pair/draw type hands, air, small pairs etc...
rather than calling OOP here i find reraising and effectively committing us here in this situation can be the better play. This is under the assumption we figure to make a winning hand around 40% with around 9-10 outs (on the assumption our K is good) so if the money goes in here we are behind...
.. but the assuption is our flop 3 bet folds out a ton of better hands, such as Jx, draws, mid PP type hands... which is a win as we only hold K high... if villian calls or shoves we still have 40%, but villian is folding enough to our flop reraise to make this play +EV...
Im a little scratchy with applying fold equity and would love some clarification to these ideas... thanks!
