Default Re: 10/20 J8s flush draw hand

Don't call a raise with J-8s. Take the free card. Then re-raise his turn bet.

[ QUOTE ]
Bigger flush draw or straight flush draw 54 spades would be the most obvious. Others are oddly played bottom two or overpair.

Sorry but a set is a big possibility too. Why are people avoiding noticing this? You are going out of your way to assign these wierd hand ranges that would merit an allin, but a set could play it the same way, and is from my experience much more likely than an overpair.

EDIT i didnt read the results before i posted either.

[/ QUOTE ]Disagree. The guy plays his set dumb, it's that simple. Why check with only one player left to act and a draw heavy board? Unless the villain feels really strongly that the button will try to steal and he can checkraise to pick up a huge pot, there is absolutely NO sensible reason for him to play his hand like this.
