Default Re: Check raise vs Leading (forcing your oponent to draw out)

Well, the first thing I look at is the size of the pot. Here the pot is already $1000 and you started with $2000. This pot is worth winning right here. That calls for leading out big. The second thing I look at is the number of opponents. Here you have 2. The more opponents there are the more likely the flush draw is out, thus leading you to bet out. The third thing I would look at is the type of players. A LAG might call all his chips on a flush draw. If that is the case maybe just call on the flop and wait until the turn to push as you will be a significant favorite at that point as long as the 3 spade doesnt come.
