If I'm thinking correctly after just waking up we're calling 3,5 BBs to win 4,5+4,5+0,5+0,8ish

which means we need 3,5/(9+1,3)= 3,5/10,3= 34% equity. I think it's really hard for us not to have that

Yodabatman calls 2,770.....??
I clearly don't understand why there is a question.

UTG's range is a red card or a black card, your calling range is a little more than deuce and the cut card.

A more interesting question might be what the minimum that you would need to call. I'm certainly calling with K2o, Q5o, J8o.

T7o is probably a call here.

I probably fold 83o.

Even with 7h2s we are only a slight dog against almost the very top of his range. And his range is a red card or a black card.

7h2s is 34.6% against a random hand.

If he has AcKd and we have something a bit better than 72o like... 8h5s, we have 36% equity. so we call.

Should we bother looking at are cards first?
