Just getting back into the game.  Had this spot in my pokerstrat session and generated some interesting discussion.  There are no ICM considerations in this spot, purely interested in chip ev.  All 3 players behind are aggro regs.  Do we raise call, raise fold, jam or open fold?  If we jam, we can assume that all 3 will call fairly close to optimal.

I'd r/f here too much,  size it 2.9k

I think it would be best to go with what mc says, then i would go R/F>R/C>fold

[pleno1]

if we r/f we absolutely must make it min off these stacks imo

Surely there jamming raises over our min are wider then they will call it off though? Do we not want the added variance in this crazy format. I'm be a bit worried about getting peeled and exploited in a mtt but not sure in a 180 man.

Think we'd need to calculate our equity vs their calling range / how often they find this range, then see what our equity is vs their jamming range (all calling range + wider) / how often they find this range. Then see what is best. Should be pretty simple using pokerstove.

[youthnkzR]

FWIW with it being 9 handed therefore 9 antes and antes being a little over 10% i would be jamming as standard.

Do our opinions change if we become 8 handed? 7 handed? 6 handed?

[lolwutwasthat]

I'd be jamming. Even though they are aggro, they probs arent stupud. If you are very r/f happy out of these stacks and they often try to exploit it then I r/c but if they dont then r/f or jamming is w/e.

[WotRTheChances]

I jam, think there's a bunch of hands we get jammed on that dont call if we jam (Ax, some suited connector/gapper stuff) that have pretty good equity vs our hand. Don't like r/f with such a strong hand in late position and just feel like jamming gets rid of more hands we don't want calls from than r/c gets jams from hands we dominate.
