Re: Hypothetical hand T987ss flops bottom 2 pair and str8 draw
<Just curious, but what situations do you not look to build a large pot with bottom two and a weakish draw?>
Who's looking to build a large pot? 4 or 5 handed you could easily have the best hand right now and you have some outs to improve. Against a passive table I'll bet this flop everytime and bet a lot of scare cards on the turn. Too much of the advice on this forum refers to situations in which you have no reads whatsoever and no indication of how your opponents play.
Given that I know my opponents and that they are, in this case, very passive, I would take this line most of the time. I would also raise or reraise this in any position a lot of the time preflop.
