Default Re: What do you do with this draw?

I'm going to let this thread die at this point. We have expounded on the virtues of the different hands about as far as is reasonable.

The bottom line, to me at least, is that with the other hands, you KNOW when you have hit something that is probably the best hand at the table and you will bet, and you KNOW when you have missed and fold.

With the KQo, obviously you can bust it, or you can catch the extreme situation of KQ, KK, or QQ, but not very often. The most common situation, other than a complete bust, is you hit a K or you hit a Q... and you still don't know where you are at. Do I have the top hand? or does the bet in front of me have me badly covered????

In that situation, which is the most common one other than a complete bust, you are GAMBLING!

While I am willing to gamble, I did not come to the table to gamble, I came to the table to take your money! And in my opinion, KQo is not a good hand with which to do it.
