Going through some hands on pokertracker trying to plug some leaks I found an interesting situation. At the time I felt like I'd been sucked out on again, when actually my opponent got his money in with the best of it.
Preflop here I'm a 68% favorite, after the flop I was surprised to see that he is a 54% favorite according to cardplayer's calculator. I would never have played a big flush/inside straight draw like this in the past but will look for these situations in the future. Is there a cutoff point for number of outs where you would make this play?
As a side note, does anyone think this might have played out differently if I hadn't put in such a pathetically weak reraise preflop and is this a terrible call on the flop?
