Played for a little bit this morning. Things went much better than yesturday. Cant tell if its because I played better, variance, or both (probably both). I felt more confident betting and laying bigger hands down. Which so far I have seen is the best defense, FOLD. One JJ hand stuck in my head that I could have folded. I wanted to, but it seemed like too many hands were in his raising range to fold.

Villain Stats: 20/9/2 this hand I wanted to fold but too many seemed to be in his range to make the call. However, I think my mistake in line of thinking was that he waited till the river to raise me (usually=pretty strong).

I dont have stats for the bottom hand. However my read was his bet was actually kind of weak. The fact that he limped and then 4x seemed to put him in the 77-TT range. I thought I had folding equity being I had been representing a tight range and if not we were off to the races. His 99 to my AK pf:

I will hit an A or K 33% of the time. So I win 8.49 if I win once and I loose 4.06 (x2) = 8:12 twice when he wins. For a thin protit of .37c.

Our equity is AK: 47%
77-11: 52%

Now I dont quite understand how to calculate Folding Equity but I figured he wasnt calling this about 50% of the time. So I actually make 1.60 every time he folds. I figured it was a profitable gamble?
