Re: Betting flush draws into a field OOP

Alright, then I guess I'm talking about those players who don't lead.
FWIW, I would not lead out with 55 on that flop. It would blow up the pot so any flush and straight draw will draw against you. With a check/raise on the flop (or the turn), you will definetely knock people out. I think very strong hands like Q9 or 55 require pot manipulation to prevent drawouts.

I lead with a lot of strong hands out of the blind, including top 2, a set or even a flopped straight/flush.
Especially playing $5/$10, if a pot is not raised pre-flop, then you usually have loose-passives in the hand who will allow the flop to be checked through.
