I'm confident that I'm ahead of his range here, but I'm wondering if it would be better to wait for a spot where i have better odds?
If you're confident of being ahead against a wide range such as this (just made up a very wide range and included monsters) then I would certainly call, with chips being in the pot and a 55% edge you shouldn't wait around by any means, especially against the type of player that would have this wide of a range (very loose, very aggressive preflop).If a player is terrible and folding tons of buttons/bbs and not 3betting a ton, you may have a larger edge at this point of the game (depends on how well you play in this area) but you won't be ahead of that player's preflop range a vast majority of the time with A8s. equity win tie pots won pots tied Hand 0: 54.840% 51.48% 03.36% 925577400 60407832.50 { A8s }Hand 1: 45.160% 41.80% 03.36% 751526135 60407832.50 { 22+, A2s+, K7s+, Q9s+, J8s+, T8s+, 96s+, 86s+, 76s, 65s, 54s, A2o+, KTo+, QTo+, J9o+, T8o+, 97o+, 87o, 76o, 65o }
