Game: NLHE | Format: Cash | Blinds/Antes: 1/2 | Effective Stacks: 100 bb | Hero Position: BTN | Pot Size: 1.5 bb Hero holds A♠ 5♠ and is considering a 4-bet over a 3-bet. Why is this hand theoretically superior to K♦ Q♦ for this purpose?
- Superior blockers and higher equity when called by the top end
- KQs has too much absolute value to turn into a bluff (under this line)
- Rule of 4 justifies the all-in equity of A5s
- A5s has MDF protection on the flop
