Borderline hand (poker)

Also: borderline, edge hand, marginal hand

Poker term

A hand near the line where either choice has about the same EV.

A solver mixes two actions with one hand only when both have the same EV (indifference). Don't memorize the percentages; lean one way based on the opponent. Example: 55 or ATo from UTG, where both Fold and Open count as correct. If the rake is high, play one step tighter.
