Game 2. RECAP

Summary

Blinds are 1/2
SB folds or opens amount of column one.
BB folds, calls, or raises the pot.

__________________1st bet____________2nd bet
__________________s_________EV________ s________ EV
limp ................. 3/4 ......... 1/8 ......... 2/3 ......... 0
min-raise ........... 2/3 .......... 0 ......... 16/27 ....... -1/9
3XBB ................ 9/16 ....... -5/32 ........ 1/2 ........ -1/4
4XBB ............... 12/25 ....... -7/25 ...... 32/75 ....... -9/25
8XBB .........................................._ 0.2634 ..... -0.6049
16XBB ........................................_ 0.1476 ..... -0.7785


The EV in the chart is net EV. Any EV over -1 means
SB should open-raise whenever her card is equal to or
less than the s value on the chart. Low values are
stronger than high values.

It was surprising to be able to solve the net SB EV
for the two bet game without solving the one bet game.

As the opening raise size increases the percentage
of hands playable deceases. Also the expected EV
deceases. The EV approaches -1 but never reaches
-1, therefore any raise size is playable.
At 16XBB SB needs a card under .1476, AA is .14796
against a random hand. Therefore no starting two
hole cards is worth opening for 16BB according to
this chart.

These results seem to imply preflop when entering
a pot optimal strategy is being extremely selective
and enter very few pots.
