Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB folds, MP3 folds, Button calls.

I find myself playing flush draws like this alot when I'm first to act on the flop. It helps build a pot, disguises my hand, and occasionally I pick up the pot right there.

Is this a stupid play? If so, would it be good in a pot with more players or a big pot with the preflop raiser in late position?

Turn: (3 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero calls.

The only reason I made this bet is because the button took FOREVER to call on the flop and I thought I had a pretty good chance of picking it up right there.

River: (7 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

I put him on a jack and mucked. Too weak?

hand 1: perfect, nh

hand 2: call down turn and river.


Edit: of course if you spike a K or hit a J on the river in hand 2 then raise it up

Would you support leading the turn without the semi-read on villan (him taking forever to call flop)?

definitely, its a good time for a semi bluff, against one vil who seems unsure about his hand you have good fold equity. when he raises you still have the odds to chase your flush and when he calls you often have 9 and 10 outs as well.
