Re: Flush draw on flop
[ QUOTE ]
I think it's extremely close in situations like this.
We're contributing 33% of the chips and expect to get back 35%. I agree.
Assuming our flush wins here 100% of the time is foolish.
Our flushes don't hold up 100% of the time do they? Let's say they win 90% (someone with a large PT db can find a more accurate number on completed hands).
There goes our equity edge.

Your flush will not always win but you should play with a high desgree of confidence that when your flush comes in you will win the hand. You have a slim equity edge that factors in the times when your flush loses. The reason why this is not close is the free card element. Not raising here is bad.
