He didn't have two pair so I had 21 outs on the turn so my call was definately +EV but would it be +EV if he did have two pair?

Why chase? I'd move in before he got a chance for those stakes.

Your the favorite even if he flops 2 pair on you.

I ran the numbers on this and I assumed that villain would not play the way he did without atleast having atleast middlepair as the minimum upto top set maximum.

With that hand range the flop gave the following equities:
Hero: 62%
Villain:38%

Turn:
Hero 41%
Villain 59%

So if villain is seen as loose as my card range assumes he is, this one could easily be raised/pushed on the flop and the turn is an easy call.

But it shouldn't be any big issue about raising the flop here, villain actually can't give hero bad pot odds here on neither the flop or turn nomatter what he does. But ofcourse, it is always nice to get the chips in when you have the highest equity. Smile

Again...I'm only just learning this. If anyone see me use this stuff wrong. Please inform. Smile
