Raise preflop, it's always good to build a big pot with suited connectors, especially with your position postflop.

Non-nut straight with two pair on the board against multiple opponents, what are you going to do? Checking is reasonable. Making a small bet with the hopes of getting called by an Ace is also reasonable. Acting first is tough because it's reasonable that a K or Q has slowplayed. If you were in LP and it was checked to you on the river it's a bit easier. But acting first, tough. I don't know, I think I would normally just check-call a bet and fold to a check-bet-raise.

If you dont think a player is capable of raising you w nothing, then small bet. I would def. be looking to show this down though.

Well, the original version said "sooted connectors". I thought a joke post deserved a joke response? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
