Re: 7CS: Why are straight draws bad?
Thanks for the reply. I thought of that problem with the small and medium straights, and was very proud of myself after doing so [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
But, for example, West says in his book that "[he] know[s] professionals who won't play ANY straights."
I guess if he counts things like KdQhJc as "overcards," it makes sense. Otherwise, it seems like you still have the possibility of pairing high cards (as with the flush draw).
