drawing, but not the nuts...

Thanks, and also to Mr. Zee. Actually I started thinking about this after reading the comment in Mr. Zee's book about making money from players who draw for less than the nuts. I don't want to be one of those players!

Yeah, you don't want to be one of those players. I had a bad night last night chasing draws that would be less than the nuts. I lost a good part of my previous days' profits by playing like this. I knew that I shouldn't be calling, but I kept doing it anyway. This always seems to happen when I'm too tired to be playing.

Generally, my rule of thumb is that I only call with a drawing hand if I have a good shot at the nuts. It serves me well, it just takes more patience than I can muster when I'm tired. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
