You're not thinking about how many offsuit combos are in people's range in a bombpot. There is a greater probability of lower flush over flush in bomb pot. Normal hand is not much much greater probability of flush over flush. Where in bomb pot it will always be 4/4 if there are 4 suited hands dealt pre. Might only be 3/4 suited hands are continued with in real game. Because every player in a bomb pot gets to a flop. If every player calls with all the suited cards when its not a bomb pot, only then would your probabilty even be equal. “in a normal hand the probability of getting flush over flushed is much greater because most offsuit hands combos are not played and suited aces are most common. If they did, we could all play like idiots and win. In a normal hand the probability of getting flush over flushed is much greater because most offsuit hands combos are not played and suited aces are the most common.īomb pots don't favor idiots. The fact that it is a, 'trash,' flush draw is almost irrelevant. It's not that bad of a flush draw either, it's the 4th nuts if it hits and it is pretty hard to be up against a better flush draw or flush draw at all considering 4 diamonds are accounted for and starting ranges are all hands, the vast majority of which don't have 2 diamonds in them. We likely have 9 outs, plus potentially 2 9s left in the deck that will at least put us ahead of KQ. Here the spr is much shallower and we are facing a half pot bet. In your hand history, 1st to act makes what I can only guess is something like a 10x pot shove. We don't need to win these often to profit, especially when we win very big pots with much higher hand strength thresholds than our opponents. The big adjustment is that we are playing vs 9 players with 100% ranges. That is such an extreme example my dude, but it is a good example of why we should play bomb pots. If you notice your table doesnt have players capable of punting then I would refuse to play any BP's with them.Įxample HH: SB open ships $1500 effective holding 24hh on a 36Jhh flop. Bottom pair plus trash FD hardly qualifies.

BP's should be played with the intent to cooler one or multiple opponents.
