Default Re: 55 UTG - Live 8/16 Hand

Six of one:

I did think there was a good chance I had the best hand. Even if it is best, however, it's very vulnerable. That's why I chose to wait until the turn to raise.

Waiting till the turn to raise will definitely make it more incorrect for overcards to come along, but by not raising the flop you are making it CORRECT for them to come along, or at least close. If the pot were bigger, ok maybe wait till the turn, but you can make it incorrect for overcards to come by raising the flop. So in effect, you are giving the 2 players behind you a cheap (and not necessarily incorrect) shot at looking at the turn. IMHO, raising the flop is the play.
