#112 Tactical Tuesday: Using Equilab To Calculate Equity in Poker (We Play A5 Suited Aggressive)

For your free poker course, just read the description below! For this week's episode, we revisit good 'ol reliable Equilab to drill down on calculation of hand equity in some all-in spots where Jon calls it all off with hands that obviously don't beat all of villain's range. But can he find enough combos in post-hand review using Equilab to feel good about the calls? Or does Coach Brad help Mr. Chai find some calculation recalibration? See how Join us for episode 112 and find out how to use this valuable tool!

Our first online cash game poker hand brought to us by Jon Chai is from 1000NL, in which Jon finds himself opening with A5s -- one of his favorite "aggro" hands with which he happily and routinely uses to increase his VPIP / adrenaline. While versatile as a starting hand, what happens when you get the river with top pair and a 5 kicker... when villain jams? Watch Jon try to cobble together enough equity to call when Coach Brad whips out the ultimate dreamcrusher: Equilab.

We find ourselves with A5s again in hand number 2, with Jon opening on button and calling a 3-bet from the small blind. We get a favorable flop, but a very unorthodox play from villain leaves Jon scrambling for equity calculation justification before putting it all in yet again. Does villain have enough weak combos to keep their range equity low enough for us to get it in? The numbers never lie when you run them through Equilab. THE EIGHTH COMBO WILL SHOCK YOU.
