Default Re: I still don\'t understand raising flush draws

The conversation so far has centered around limit. In NL, it is important to look at stack sizes and calculate your implied odds. If can push all in for 100bb when your card hits and get called 25% of the time, it is + EV. Think about that.

This is also the reason that most NL players will play any two pocket pairs (when stacks are 50bb or higher) for a 5bb raise or less. Hittign your set and stacking someone for 100bb makes it worth missing 6 out of 7 flops.
