Default Re: I am no good at 6-max

Just a quick post, because I have to go.

Your 2 overcards and bdfd is a relatively weak draw, but the pot is a reasonable size, so continuing in the hand makes sense. However, a flop raise may be better than calling, as it may buy you a free card if you need one.

Also a flop raise appears to show strength following your preflop raise. So unless the SB is particularly agressive, there is probably a reasonably good chance that your free card play will work.

Once you made your nut flush draw on the turn, you were correct to call the turn raise. You were getting pot odds of 4.5:1 to call, and the odds of making your flush were about 4:1. Also you were likely to gain additional bets on the river if you made your hand.
