Re: How to play a flush draw?
obviously it depends on the number of people and the size of the pot... say a decent pot and 5 people (including you)... the logic is that you're a favorite to win... there may be one or more other flush draws that increase your pot odds and you're helped out by KNOWING that you will NOT be 2nd best (i.e. you'll put no bad money into the pot on the river)... so in most situations you're EV is positive and so betting is the right thing to do...
i hope that was coherent enough
