Facing Heat with a big hand 200bb's deep vs loose-passive

    Default Facing Heat with a big hand 200bb's deep vs loose-passive

    Villain here is loose-passive (41/13/0.7). He called me down with AK unimproved on a drawy board vs my OESFD that blanked and won when I checked down the river.

    He built his stack by coolering the table in a huge multi-way pot where he played a big draw passively and hit after calling AI preflop vs 2 villains.

    As usual I don’t mind if this seems like an autofistpumpship. But I’m curious what he can have here 200bb’s deep, especially when I’m pretty sure he won’t get aggro with a hand like 56 or T9.

    Oh and don't worry about commenting on preflop; I have my reasons.

    I think this is a fold. Have you ever seen him play AA-QQ though?

    I would call because seriously I have trips in a raised pot.

    Pretty much what I was thinking. I think he definitely could play JJ+ like this. The only thing that worries me is that some of these types would flat those hands. Tough spot really but I'm a station it'd probably call.

    approx. 660 in the pot, with approx 225 behind


    he doesn't have to hardly ever be bluffing or show up with an overpair for a call to be correct!

    you would need almost exactly 34% equity to call, if my approximations for the pot size and stack size behind were accurate. This range is without 8-6o and 8-4s.

    btw i forgot to mention that i assume villain is going all in, so i counted his stack as part of the pot size.

    always nice when somebody tells u the math side of it is correct.

    this is really a sick spot. when i first looked at it, i thought villain was the minre-raiser, so i was like, oh, get it in for sure. im certainly never happy when i dont have the nuts and a super super passive player is forcing me to make a decision for all my chips, but i think u dont have much of a choice 200bb deep. if u were deeper u could get away from it, but you've already invested too much and you are going to have equity vs every holding, regardless.

    Which equity? If ur behind u have maximum 4 outs (3 tens and one 8 vs pocket 7's) and most likely 3 outs (tens) vs trips with a better kicker.
    Or am i missing something?

    ... 3 outs is equity isnt it? ... lol then u add in all the dead money in the pot, then u add in the probability of other holdings he can have that you are beating ...

    dont think you're missing anything ...

    A) You have more than 3 outs here. (3+3 split on turn and 3+6 split on river.)
    B) He shows up with worse kicker sometimes. Ie: I don't know how like 98 is not in his range here.

    Yes, and that is why I call this 100%. I think you guys are really underestimating how bad people play AA these days.
