Who has the range advantage on T 9 8 rainbow?
Clear Button edge: the Big Blind arrives with more air, and the Button has more strong top pairs.
BTN vs BB single-raised pot: the button opens, the big blind calls.
medium / rainbow / connected
Share of each range that is sets, two pair, overpairs, straights or better, and combo draws. This is who wins the big pots.
The Button has the edge on a draw-heavy board. Bet bigger with a tighter range and charge the draws. Try a high card in place of a connector and watch the board flip the Button's way.
Middle-card city. The big blind defends exactly the JT, T9, 98, and 76 hands that turn this flop into pairs-plus-draws, while half the button's range is two overcards and a prayer.
