Havent made a thread post in a while so I was hoping some of the more mathematical players could help me sort this one out as its a huge leak in my game after looking at some hand reports on PT3.
I imagine we calc our odds for setmining small pocket pairs in a cashgame as we would calc our odds for any hand. The odds are like 8.5:1 that we hit our set, right? Does this mean we need 8.5:1 to call a raise with a small pp?
Example 1 - were in EP with say 33. we limp $0.02 and a player in MP also limps. BTN then raises to 0.10.
Pot size: 0.17.
Needed to call: 0.08.
Do we have the odds to call?
Example 2 - were in BB with 33 again. EP raises to 0.06. BTN flats calls. SB folds.
Pot size: 0.14.
Needed to call: 0.04
I imagine here we do, but I want to learn how to actually understand how to do this and make profitable calls instead of just guessing really.
Hope this helps some other players as well!
