10
Q

True or False
You should be getting 20:1 implied odds with A-Qs. If you are getting less than this, you should not continue with this hand when facing a 3-bet. Why?

A

False. You should continue with A-Qs because it is a strong hand that does not necessarily need to improve to a premium hand in order to win at the showdown.

If you have 7-7 and your implied odds are 12:1 should you continue?

17
Q

What type of hands have reverse implied odds?

A

18
Q

How should you play hands with reverse implied odds vs 3-bets?

19
Q

You raise to 3bbs from the HJ and the CO 3-bets to 12bbs. What is the MDF?

A

27% 1 – 12 / (12 + 3 + .5 +1) = 27%

20
Q

You raise to 3bbs from the BTN and the SB 3-bets to 9bbs. What is the MDF?

A

35% MDF = 1 – 8.5 (8.5+ 3 + 1+.5) = 35%

21
Q

Yes or No
Should MDF be strictly followed on every street?

A

No. When you’re out of position, you’ll under-realize your equity, so you’ll want to over-fold in some situations. When you’re in position, you’ll want to defend more than MDF because you will over-realize your equity

22
Q

How does the minimum defense frequency change when you are in position vs out of position?

A

Defend wider IP and tighter OOP because of how much you realize your equity

23
Q

What is the formula for minimum defense frequency?

A

MDF = 1 - [opponent’s bet / (opponent’s bet + pot)]
