Today's five puzzles

  1. ICM

    Stacks: 13000, 9000, 3000 chips. Payouts: 500, 300, 200. Seat 1 shoves 13000 chips; seat 2 wins 60% of the time if called. There's also 1800 chips of dead money in the pot, lost uncontested to seat 1 if hero folds.

    Should the hero call or fold?

  2. Push/fold

    You hold three of spades and queen of spades with 10bb effective stacks, in the big blind, facing a shove.

    Should you call or fold?

  3. Find the nuts

    Progressive board — flop six of spades, seven of spades and six of diamonds; turn four of diamonds; river eight of hearts.

    Which two-card holding makes the nuts on each of the flop, the turn, and the river?

  4. Equity

    You hold jack of diamonds and nine of hearts. Villain shows six of spades and eight of spades. Board: three of diamonds, ace of spades and ace of hearts.

    What is your equity to win the hand?

  5. Pot odds

    The pot is 30bb. Villain bets 23bb, costing 23bb to call.

    What equity do you need to profitably call?
