Default Re: So wrong to check 5th here?

Again, winning poker isn't about good hands--it's about good situations. Third just isn't a good situation, and a three-card Eight isn't a great hand to begin with.

And what are the odds that hero will catch good while three other players catch bad? I don't feel like doing the calculation, but it's pretty long.
