I think of of the big flaws in my game is not playing big draws correctly, particularly from early position. For example in a MTT tonight I raised to 360 (blinds 60-120) from the SB with A /images/graemlins/spade.gifK /images/graemlins/spade.gif, BB and Button called.
Flop was 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif5 /images/graemlins/club.gif2 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
I checked.
Question #1- Do you bet here? Is the check as weak as I think it is?
BB checked Button pushed for about 2100, I had 1700 left thought fo a while and call, he had nines, I hit an ace.
Question #2- I felt this was an easy call with my over cards and the nut draw, however, would you have called this with a non nut draw?
Question #3- When do you bet a draw, what situations do you feel are most successful?
