I lead this flop.

On a paired flop, even if you catch the little end of it you are probably the best hand. Not only that but we have a good kicker. A lot of smaller q's will call us down. Most times a person with a set will raise you.

People with overcards and even flush draws will often fold fearing the flopped full house. People also LOVE to bluff a board like this.

Couple all this with you draws to a backdoor strait or flush means you have a strong hand with a lot of outs.

A flopped full house is a real threat, and you won't know it when trips overtake you with the house. There is also a strong likelood that someone is drawing to a gutshot or EOSD. The flush draw is also a real threat, but your have redraws if it comes on the turn and they don't hold the A.


Anyone have enough cycles to do some math and show me why I might be wrong?
