NL: Silver Graduation Exam

by MiiWiin

Let's move on to silver! It's trickier, a little bit harder, but we
still don't have to deal with reads or stats but merely look at the
situation as it's presented to us on the table - without any information
about our opponents.

Today, we will talk a lot more about equity; you should be able to
quickly determine whether you're in good shape in a given situation. In
your own interest, you should try making your decisions the way you
would on the table, without help of the Equilator.

Have fun!

You've decided to bet out and your opponent goes all-in. You put him on
the following range: A9 / K9 / TT / 65 / 55! Assuming you only give him
these five hands, do you have a profitable call?

, 2Spade

(4 players)

Same situation again - but this time, you know that the CO is holding
aces and the button has hit his set! Can you still find a mathematically
correct call?



Question 10.

Let's stick with the problem from the previous questions just a little
bit longer. You don't put the CO on aces now, but also give him a set
instead. This time, you're therefore up against the hands 22 and 33.
Will your situation (equity) become better or worse?
