I still think there's something to be said for not raising 3rd and leading till 4th or 5th in 5 or 6 person pots in low limit games on the basis of it being way more difficult to tell where you're at. After all, isn't the chance you win this pot quite close to the chance you'd win with a live 3 flush on 3rd. Would you raise with that hand on the same basis?

I'd say 4 out of 5 times I raise with that holding, but when someone acts like they've made a hidden set or, pairs their 4th st card on 5th after you've made kings and deuces, you're way more likely to find yourself on the fence, where you have no clear move. This spot is fairly common when you play against a table, and I think it's more costly as well as more difficult to spot when you've raised into a field that has already called. There's nothing more depressing then realizing you've been out played by a call station on 5th-7th rounds who makes this hand (48)9448 and just keeps over calling.



I guess I'm not replying to the last post... but I'm not going to retype.
