Re: BB flops 2nd best straight Stars 25NL
Ya, this is seriously an instacall. What's easy for us may not be for the next guy. Why is this an instacall?
--You have the second best hand possible at the moment. He may have 9T. Other than that, you are way ahead of him. He could have a set, two pair, pair plus flush draw, pair plus straight draw, or a lower straight, or even the same hand as you. You are a nice favorite over all the hands he could possibly hold except 9T.
--Even if you are beat at the moment...You have redraws. Your hand can still improve on the river if a heart comes.
--Pot is $27.25. It costs you $12.25 more to call, at which time the betting would be over. You're getting better than 2:1 on that 12.25 with the second nuts. That's a good deal for you.
