    Fold Equity

    Standard line on this flop? If I shove him he's getting almost exactly 2 to 1 and we can be pretty sure he has 77-TT/flush draw. Might have a set but 66 is extremely unlikely. Can we bet fold on that flop?

    We're pretty deep which is a problem. Personally I think his pot control absolutely stinks. But once he has 2-bet and we actually have fold equity by shoving, can we really bet fold? Dirty big pot with the hands considered.

    Can we really fold it when we have fold equity? And even if he's only getting 2 to 1, does his 2-bet mean he's never ever mucking.

    His raise looks pretty strong.

    Doesn't look like he's going to be raise-folding. Therefore I don't really think we have fold equity here. You can stick it in and hope to run good to win a 30%er

    I'm a sooper nit and just fold this pre. UTG+2 meh. If we are Mid/late position I raise fo'sho.
    Still cant beleive bridge thought it was a sit and go. freak of medic nature.

    Been watching sheets and johnnybax too much on xfactor. I forget that they rarely play $11rebuys. I'm just surprised he called me with what he had. But then again I'm also surprised he 2-bet with what he had.

    I don't like it, as you only have TP+GS, I think you have more than 30% but not like loads more

    Board: 6h 3h 2s
    Dead:

    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 32.388% 31.83% 00.56% 14181 248.00 { 6c5c }
    Hand 1: 67.612% 67.05% 00.56% 29873 248.00 { JJ-66, 33-22, AhJh, AhTh, Ah9h, Ah8h, Ah7h, Ah5h, Ah4h, Ah2h }

    and yea no FE, I personally would not be playing this hand from almost any position unless the table was tight and I believed I'm getting most of my chips by getting them to fold anyway, I think baby SC's are frequently overplayed.

    It would be ridiculous especially in a rebuy format to 2bet/fold anything of substance.

    This was post rebuy. I just fail to see how he ever thought he was ahead. He still has to be right 33% of the time. In his shoes I think 2-bet folding is probably the right move. He has f/all outs so much of the time.
