Default Re: Size Does Matter

Let's see...one, maybe two draws (but probably one), the board is not scary at all and that's a probe bet if I've ever seen one.

If you raise, you might stack a jack or get away from the hand when a monster does something dumb like min-3 bet (this doesn't happen too often, though.) But you'll often fold an 88 type hand that you want in.

If you call, a K or Q makes it fairly hard to play the hand because they're in the 'decent flush draw' range. It also usually makes it more difficult to stack a 'good' jack, but you'll get the most out of 88 and JT. You might also blow a draw off on the turn, which is a plus.

I'm 50/50 on what to do here and sometimes do either, but given your likely image at this point I like a raise more.
