Anyway, raising the flop here is a bad idea. Finally, use the converter, it works great for Stars. http://www.selachian.com/tools/bison...hconverter.cgi |

Re: Nut str8 on flop, worse(?) draw than opponent.....
Raising the flop is bad because you will only win a small pot, lose a big one, or split.
In this situation, since you have a back-door flush draw, flat call; if the turn makes somebody else a bigger str8, completes the diamond flush, or pairs, then it's time to muck. If the turn is a heart, then you can raise it up. As a matter of fact, given that this was unraised preflop, folding your flopped nut str8 with weak redraw isn't a bad play either. There are way too many bad cards that can come on the turn to wreck your hand. |
