Default Re: OESD+Flush draw...do you call?

I dont like the application of the 5/10 rule in this case. Hands like 67s, J9s, arent like small pairs. With small pairs, you hit your set, and your good.

Suited connectors can flop big (made hands) and they can flop draws. When we flop draws, especially OOP, we arent always stacking out opponents. Alot of times, 1/4-1/2 of the time we just lose more money after the flop, then check fold on a later steet, or villain doesnt pay us off. No one sees a set coming, but when there are two hearts on the flop and a 3rd one hits on the turn, villain's figure out the flush just got there.

5/10 Rule applies to small pairs and not SC IMO.
