(.5/1) 6 max TPTK Flush draw.

[John Bedtelyon]

Hey Guys,

No poker tracker, no reads as I'm doing homework and playing multiple tables. Just a basic question, in this hand, do I bet out? Check/call? c/r? Three bet? Once again no reads, but I was pretty sure I had the best hand on the flop without being reraised.

You are the button - how can you c/c or c/r or bet out??
Home work + Multi tabling + Posting on 2+2 = -EV

The hand was well played/standard.

Looks pretty standard.

I say you did just fine for a Multi Table Multitasker [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Thanks for the replies. Should I be raising my open ended straight draws or flush draws on the flop with lots of people in the hand? With few people in the hand? With proper odds?

Do you understand how pot equity works?

[TazQ]

your goal should be to get as many bets in the flop as possible if you have more than your fair share of pot equity, even if the difference is 1%

of course there are situations where you should control the bets in a way to make people face more than 1 bet at once to clear up outs, say an overcard, but you'll always be playing +ev poker if you just ram and jam when you have an edge
