Default Re: what is being over-looked. why it\'s not that simple.

hi bob
the problem with the gut-shot is that it puts a straight on board when it completes. also, there are more river cards that can hurt you. in the case of the over-pair with a pair on board, and bob that's the only hand were considering for the call of 2 cold (the call closing the action of course, or capping it). the cold-call doesn't seem to have merit in any other case, including those times there is an over-card to your pocket pair on the paired board. there is nothing written about this one single instance, but i think i'm right.
