0.5/1 cash game

Few factors to consider.

If we lose will he leave?

If we fold will he ship again?

If we lose will he continue to ship blind?

I think these are all worth considering before we call with T8s. Especially as everyone else's calling range will be absurdly tight.

JT+, Q8+, K7 (maybe lower than 7), any A and any pair.

I'm personally not calling with T8. If he's ready to go home, he's probably shipping till he's getting called.

Think these edges only really work when you're playing enough similar situations for them to conform to their averages, which isn't really going to be the case. I think it's fine to pass a small 0.5% edge or whatever, and not calling off 3+ buy ins in a live game.

meh pretty sure everybody calls way tighter irl.

I think the same, which is why I didn't go by the Maths. I'm definitely not calling it off with Q5, T8, etc.

Last paragraph is so true

This is why I posted really, in my head I snap kt, in game I could easily have talked myself out of it!

Ye defo, in effect, as like mister freeeee rolllllllin said these are just gamble spots so most of the time just comes down to whether you fancy it or not....like somone giving you a horse tip @ 6/1 he says it should be a 9/2 shot doesnt mean we all snap go out and pile on.
