An interesting hand has got me thinking.

All-in HU in a turbo SnG.

Me: 
Oppo: 

Flop: 

On the flop, I have 4x9's, 3x10's, 3xJ's, 3xK's, 4xA's to move ahead, so 17 outs c.68% against oppo yet still behind.

Unless I had 4 to the flush (a possible 8ish further outs) is it possible to be further ahead in a hand yet still officially behind?

Not really a PHA I grant you, but an interesting little question that popped into my mind as the flop hit.

Cheers.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

this post was in response to longines post that gave an example that was pretty much the same as OP but included the FD which he's subsequently removed without telling anyone

Probably something to do with our new nutcase manager deciding to start pre season training a week earlier than all the pro clubs. Threw up Tuesday violently during training and still feel like jelly...Not looking forward to tonight lets put it that way.

Youve taken into account you hitting one of your outs on the turn, but not him pairing to make his FH, really your only 57% Fave

Good point, neglected the re-draw to the boat.
