progressCO vs LJ open at 30 BB
8-max MTT · ante 12.5 % · chip EV
CO facing a LJ open at 30 BB
The lojack opens to 2 BB and the action reaches the cutoff with 30 big blinds. The book folds 83% of hands, calls with 9.1%, 3-bets to 5.5 BB with 7.4% and goes all-in with 0.1%.
Always 3-bet: AA, AKs, AKo, A6s, A4s, A3s, A2s, KK, K9s, QQ, JJ, JTs, 44.
Always call: AJs, AJo, ATs, ATo, A9s, KQs, KQo, KJs, KJo, KTs, QJs, QTs and 2 more.
With players still to act behind, the cutoff needs a stronger hand to continue, so it plays fewer hands than the button does and prefers a 3-bet or a fold to a loose call.
