just a note to n00bs:

when you have a 2 card flush, i NEVER put someone else on a flush draw. It's just too rare, and you'll win more when they DONT than you'll lose the few times that they DO. That said, 3 bet this mofo. For each time you lose to a higher you'll win with a flush much more.

This has not been my experience. My low flushes get run over with wild abandon. I am willing to chalk this up to sample size. But if you think your flush is beat, you might be right. Proceed with caution.

Though, in this hand, I would expect to see your steamer with a strait on the river. Jam the pot.

Well, Ive been busy w/ MCAT studying but once that is over this week ill make a search for a post i had a few months prior when i asked the same question- basically how often is my flush beat by another flush. the conclusion was not often enough to prevent you from jamming the pot - unles there is a straight flush possibility or a paired board (boat maybe).

I think it's just sample size. Or, are you playing below .50/1?

22K hands at .5/1 and 1/2. Is there a reasonably easy way to dig these hands out of PT?

I might just be remembering the times it happens and forgeting the times my low flush walks. But honestly, I can't recall a single flush with a high card lower than a J working for me. I lost a giant pot last night when the 4th flush card hit the river and the AA I was up against with my 89s ended up with the flush. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
