Re: Draw poker hand from the SB
Caveat: my draw poker experience is next to nil, this is just speculation based on my general poker knowledge.
I think you have to go for the flush here. You are getting insanely good odds to draw to your flush. (I take it from the results this is not Jacks or better to open. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) Moreover, post draw is very easy to play if you go for the flush, but can be quite tricky if you end up with something like two small pair the other way. I think with aces definitely, and maybe kings, slight possibility queens raising and playing the pair is better, but this is where a real draw expert should chime in. With all those people in the pot, it just does not sound like a pair will take it down, and two pair is a pretty marginal holding, too IMO.
The game you describe sounds great btw. It sounds like a lot of cheap plays from the small blind, free plays from the BB, and people comeing along when you have a big hand. Makes me want to take up draw!
