    Default a 2-pair BB special

    Full Tilt Poker
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
    9 players

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $52.75
    UTG+1: $83.90
    MP1: $73.50
    MP2: $138.30
    MP3: $50 .... a 14/5 who's just sat down at the table
    CO: $53.10
    Button: $58.05
    SB: $47.30
    Staresy: $49

    Pre-flop: (9 players) Staresy is BB with J 2
    UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, 2 folds, SB calls, Staresy checks.

    Flop: 4 J 2 ($2.5, 5 players)
    SB checks, Staresy bets $2, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, MP3 raises to $6, Staresy raises to $22, UTG+1 folds, MP3 raises all-in $49.5, Staresy ....

    range - well, he has just sat down and posted and gets to see the flop for free, but he clearly likes his hand.

    I would take a stab at this sort of range, but then I am rubbish at this!

    Board: 2c 4c Jd
    Dead:

    equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
    Hand 1: 60.0172 % 58.67% 01.34% { Js2d }
    Hand 2: 39.9828 % 38.64% 01.34% { 44, 22, AcJc, Ac5c, Ac3c, KcJc, QcJc, JcTc, Jc9c, AJo, KJo, QJo, J9o+ }

    Do u take this on? Do u even make the 3-bet?

    since he got it free you should probably put j4, j2, and 42 in his range.

    I don't know if I 3bet this flop against an unknown... It's an unraised pot and you have tb2p... I don't think I ever felt this against an unknown (weak?). I would like to call and give into the inevitable if the turn happens to be a 4... I don't mind playing a medium sized pot here, but meh not my stack.
