Poker Strategy: Two Pair Go For Thin Value?

  1. At what point do we feel the reverse implied odds are too high to continue in a multiway pot oop pre? I guess we feel k10 off is ok? How low of a side card makes a preflop call feel, generally speaking, unprofitable?

  2. Hero played it well, he has thin value against the specific hands he's up against but not against the range of hands he could be going up against. Also the LJ could easily bluff with just a pair if he has the A of spades.

  3. The hero was lucky. If the low jack shoves, is he really going to call even if small blind folds? That is a weak 2 pair for that board. I'm a river calling station and i nit fold that if jammed. Hero was lucky. I wish you'd asked him if he'd have folded w a river shove from low jack. I bet he would've folded.

  4. It should be a bet because, at this level, AA, AK, KJ, K9s, and QT are all check-calling a SMALL bet. That's 30 combos! Whereas u get check-called and lose to AJ, J9s, and KQ, which is 26 combos. When u beat 54% of their check-calling range, u should be betting!

    And i'm not worried about flushes because, the way the hand played out, i think flushes bet their own hand on the turn and/or river almost 100% at this level.

  5. bet would have been better, looked like a busted flush draw vs a pair and the Lj could have put hero on king with low kicker or QA
