Is nobody worried about the 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ?

Perhaps I am too paranoid, but forgive me, today amrks the end of my first week of online play.

The Ace of clubs is so much more likely than the 7 of clubs, and will be played just as strongly. So I think you should play this hand as strongly as possible, and do everything you can think of to get your opponent's chips in the middle. If you flop a full house and lose to a straight flush, well, that's just bad luck. But to hedge your bets on the river because you fear the straight flush is wrong, IMO.
