Default Re: combo-draw early

I think you need to be pretty sure you are getting paid off if a flush hits to take your line. 180 feels about the right amount to get the call you want. Many players will curse and call that with JT or better.

The other option that jumps out at me is a CR on the turn. The added benefit being that if he does call you have a few more "outs" to bluff the river with. If he just calls the C/R, you can feel pretty confident that he doesnt have a great hand, b/c most players will take the chance to push in there. So, any Q,K,A that misses him, will most likely get a fold. Although that line is dicey with these stacks, it is hot or miss wether a player will fold with 1/2 his stack in the middle regardless. But I do want to start building some fold equity into our line. Also, it garuntees we at least get paid some on our flush, and probably stack him if a 4,5,6 fall on the river.

Interesting spot though. Much easier to manipulate if we both have 1500 behind.
