Hi,
it's a classic situation: We're playing no-limit 6-max and villain defends his big blind aggressively against open raises from the small blind - in this case he calls 35% and 3-bets 18%.
Should we 4-bet 88 in this spot?
With the aid of the Funnel Principle and by considering the right things at showdown you can narrow his 3-bet range down as follows:
red = 3-bet / all-in
green = 3-bet / call 4-bet
blue = 3-bet / fold
yellow = You do not know exactly if and with which range villain is capable of bluff shoving.
What do you consider the EV of a 4-bet with 88 to be in the following scenarios?
1) Villain shoves only TT+, AK
2) Villain additionally shoves 55-44
3) Villain shoves all pairs
Here is my quick calculation:
Results:
A)
4b/call = 0bb
4b/fold = 3.3bb
B)
4b/call = 2.5bb
4b/fold = 1.8bb
C)
4b/call = 5.3bb
4b/fold = 0.29bb
