re: Poker & Someone please give me a theory/math explanation for why this is a bad idea
If you-re in the BB, why wouldn/t you call him, you have a defending range. Middle position another one raises and UTG folds, what do you do now???
In more than 90% you have different cards than the other, so you can say>>> he has AA, but I have 67, my cards don-t touch his range, but can you afford to see what the flop brings up?
Maybe its 667, but you sill havent won, your shove gets called and he gets a Bernstein on the river. I would stay with math and call an UTG raise only with a hand that has an above 33% probability to win. Unless its FT or I am shortstacked, that would change A LOT!
