The scenario is: You are in BB facing a 2.5x raise from the Button (assuming 50% opening range). You decide to 3bet resteal with a range of 7.5% (JJ+, AKs, AQo, bluff with A5s, A4s, J7s-J9s, etc). You get called. Now what do you do??
Is the following math correct: In the blind facing the raise, the pot is 4bb (SB+BB+raise of 2.5). Let's say you 3bet to 8bb. You are betting 8 to win 4 so you are giving yourself odds of 1:2. This means that you need to win the pot 66% of the time in order to break even. I used Flopzilla to compare that 3bet range to see what to continue with. To get 66% equity approx, you have to continue on a WIDE range of boards, i.e. any top pair or better, any pocket pair less than top (TT on Q73), ALL straight and flush draws, any middle pair. That''s a lot of poker to play out of position in a 3bet pot, if my assumptions and math are correct. And I don't know how to continue the calculation to the Turn and River.
Please correct me if something is wrong in that analysis.
