And if you are a good player, you will realize that this was a special situation, and you'll never think about folding a made straight again, and you will make tons and tons of cash from people pushing over the top of you when you have those stone cold nuts

[/ QUOTE ]

Unfortunately, you have pretty good hands that you would like to get to a showdown a lot more often than you have the stone cold nuts. Opponents are much easier to play against when they play completely straightforwardly. Encouraging them to bluff at you is usually a bad idea. The only exception are those opponents who already bluff too often, and you always want to encourage them to bluff even more.

You talk about people betting large amounts of money against me when I have a better hand like it's a bad thing.

Why would you ever fold in this position. If hes got a flush draw your a favorite, if hes got a set YOUR A FAVORITE! Are you afraid to lose the money? If your afraid of being outdrawn you shouldn't play poker. THe only hand he could have that is a favorite over you is K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], giving him the striaght plus the flush draw. If you lay it down, and hes got that i give you props, but your still crazy!
