Default Re: NL25

We have top pair + flush draw. Not only can we call, we should be 3-betting.

The beauty of pair + draw-type hands is that no matter what he has, we have outs on him. If he has a better flush draw, then we're ahead and he's drawing to 7, not 9 outs. If he has an overpair, then we have all 9 flush outs plus 5 more trips/two pair outs. If he has two pair, then we have 9 flush + 2 trips outs.

Bottom line is we have a lot of equity against any hand, so we need to get money into the pot.
