99 for example was a large 60/40 favorite against the wider 30% range but is a slight underdog vs 10%.Ī way to deal with such decisions is to first estimate the minimum equity needed to call. You can also see against a much tighter player, hands that had an edge against 30% are now losing vs a 10% range. As you can see no hand is even 90% pre flop so even with AA you wont win them all. It's ultimately up to you how much of an edge you want to gamble with your stack. If you're playing cash, even waiting for 77 vs 30% gives you at least a 10% edge (55/45). If you're playing 10 BB in a tournament though and there are blinds and antes in the pot you'll have to take the flip sometimes. Basically flipping a coin for stacks or even a 1-2% underdog depending on which sim you use. Repeating this against a top 10% range instead:Īs you can see, you're not giving yourself any edge with 55 vs 30%. For your example and for fun here are a few equities for comparison. You can use free sites or tools to get the equities. I would suggest memorizing 77, and TT+ against a 30%, 20%, 10%, and 5% range. But for cash games where stacks are usually deeper I don't think it's that important to know each hands equity against each range. If you're a tournament player it's more useful to know ranges down to 55. I think this comes down to off table study. I don't think there's any easy way to estimate this math in your head.
