Re: How you play this straight draws and flush blockers on button?
I am surprised that no one is suggesting raising less than pot. this gives the original reraiser a chance to repot it again with 56 and giving people with outs to chop with you, or better flush draws, more incentive to fold. This may be a spot that I might consider a minraise, just to allow the original raiser to reraise. If he doesnt reraise, it's unlikely that the two callers were slowplaying and will raise you, and this allows you to put more money in the pot when you hit on the turn, and may get you a freecard when the OB tries to checkraise or check/call the turn. The downside is that sometimes the OB will call the minraise and bet out the turn making it more expensive for you to draw, but against loose low limit players, this may work well.
Any opinions?
