Re: Wait until the turn to raise?
[ QUOTE ]
Gutshots are getting, what... 15:2 when you raise? They're probably ok with implied odds in this pot, but it's not a clearly profitable call. Let's assume they were getting correct odds. And that there's one out there. You still make money when they call correctly. Run through the math if you're not convinced (this is a serious suggestion, not a snarky "I'm right and you're wrong" sort of thing).
Don't take the nature of the responses the wrong way. People are trying to help you see that you're looking at this the wrong way.

Believe me, I sincerely appreciate all your guys' input. I'll be the first to admit I have too much to learn still about the game, and posting threads like this one go a long way in helping me notice the subtle difference between what is the correct play (raising at every opportunity?) and the incorrect (or not as-correct) play (slowplaying). Well, at least it was subtle to me. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Again, thanks to all for the advice.
