[/ QUOTE ] It most certainly is not a silly generalization. Straights are totally vulnerable - especially when there's a flush draw out there and people are leading into you.

I'm not saying I like slow-playing a made hand. I'm just saying that if you're up against a guy who is 66/28, sometimes you simply have to decide that villain is not drawing to a flush. If you shut down every time the third of a suit comes on board, you'll get blown out of big pots too easily.

That said, I would have also bombed this flop, especially with another opponent in the hand.

Heads up, I agree with a flop raise. However, we still have the PF raiser in the hand. I'd like him to come along with his AK or KQ. A big raise here might scare off AA.

I don't think we can start putting every SB overbet on a draw here, particularly with the given read. I think JQ, KT, K9, AK, 99, TT are more likely. Your straight is only vulnerable to a set making a boat (I can live with 2 pair drawing to 4 outs)

On the turn, you have to either fold or push. If you call and he doesn't have the nut flush another [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is going to kill your action on the river.

I'm curious to find out what villian had...

Well if you apply your notes AND look at how cordinated the flop is, then this is an ideal situation to raise the flop and get it all in.

From his betting patterns I thought he was bluffing a lot. With my note I thought he is a very inexperienced player who doesn't know how to protect a hand. Overall I expect there is a good chance he is is way behind. I'm not sure what it is about my note that makes you think he will call a substantial raise/get it all in?

raise flop to 35-40 range. If for some reason you decide to misclick and don't raise the flop-- then push the turn for sure. When you're deep stacked you have to fast play made hands against LAG's.
