Default Re: Hmmm JTs UTG raise hand

I think Ed's post was about multiway pots, and that it's bogus that you're charging the draw when the draw is actually making money (flushdraw against 2+ opponents).

You may raise a draw though, even with 2+ opponents in the pot, but you're raising for value or to drive the other players out (the flushdraw isn't going anywhere).

If it is heads up, "charging the flushdraw" wouldn't be that bogus, because he's losing money for every bet that goes in. But you're right that its harder to pin someones holding to a flushdraw when it's heads up. If your only opponent would play every hand, the probability that he actually has a flushdraw when the flop has two of a suit is about 5%...

Btw, your other post rocked! And good luck with starting over!
