Care to elaborate? Why is this good with flush draw but bad with straight draw? How would you play it?

Bad with straight draw and bad with flush draw.

Good with straight and flush draw.

You're given good odds to see the turn. Why not just take it? Given what I've seen in your two posts alone, I think you're prone to overaggression.

I don't think its insanely stupid, but i dont think it's the right play, either. I think it screams OESD the way you played it PF, then on the flop. A little too agressive IMO. If it was the J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], well, yeah, that's the right play, but I dont think it is here.I like the lead bet, but I would just call the min raise. The exception IMO, is if you think you can get your opponent to lay down a hand like AQ, or an overpair at least one time out of 3.

Yes, I'm an idiot for not liking a billion dollar overbet into a tiny pot without a hand.

if the Q and the 5 were [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] maybe, why are you in a push frenzy?

You guys are way overreacting. I don't mind it at all. It sets up later hands and gets you action regardless of the outcome, and you have a nut draw if you get called.
