What do you do when you flop a good draw?
I get the impression from reading Burtman's articles on pokerpages that it's a not-unusal occurance to semi-bluff draws in high-level tuornament play. I suppose in "real" tournaments, people fold more often, making those semi-bluffs more powerful? Because I don't see the play advocated here much, if ever.
That said, how would you play this: Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) converter saw flop|<font color="C00000">saw showdown</font> Button (t645) SB (t1600) Hero (t1115) UTG (t800) UTG+1 (t715) MP1 (t730) MP2 (t920) CO (t1475) Preflop: Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="666666">3 folds</font>, MP2 calls t30, CO calls t30, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks, Flop: (t120) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> <font color="CC3333">SB bets t55</font>, Hero ? Also, what do you do if it is checked to you? |

Fold, the pot is still small, its early on and if you raise you might not lose the guy with a pair of aces.

Re: What do you do when you flop a good draw?
I routinely make a decent bet if I flup a good (nut) flush draw. I rarely make the same play with OESD, as I count my Ace as an out often with the flush draw.
I play my draws pretty aggressively and normally win the pot before the draw ever has a chance to hit. I don't know if I'm playing this right, however, or costing myself some money on the rare instance I do get called or when I would make more by actually letting the draw play out. |
