BTN vs BB single-raised pot: the button opens, the big blind calls.
medium / two-tone
Share of each range that is sets, two pair, overpairs, straights or better, and combo draws. This is who wins the big pots.
With the range and nut edge together, a small bet with the Button's whole range profits. Try swapping the lowest card for a middle connector and watch the edge move.
The king keeps the raiser in front, but the live flush draw hands the big blind real equity in hands that would otherwise fold. An edge with a countdown attached.
