View Full Version : "Pumping" an OESD the same as a flush draw? (Limit)

I will push a OESD if I'm holding the high end in my hand but have a tendency to drop out with the low end. With a flush draw I'll stay in even with a 32s and pump it with enough players but check /call with fewer. Pot odds being a given.

Is it +EV to work an OESD the same way as you would a flush draw, even though you're holding the bottom end? And do you check/call these draws HU in a full ring game given you aren't getting the "proper pot odds"?

Discount your outs slightly, but in general you can expect to have near the full 8 outs given no flush draws. You'll win far more often than you'll lost to someone on the top side.

In NL obviously this isn't good advice, as when someone is topside you'll get to pay your entire stack.
