A Big Draw OOP

[imashyboi]

I don't play alot of sh hold'em, actually I haven't played hold'em online for a few months, but I'll take a shot at this anyway.

Raising is definitely horrible here. There are tons of draws he could have which makes raising pointless since he's likely to call anyway. I do agree there are SOME hands which he'll fold, BUT those hands are very limited compared to the hands he will call with. I would bet/call on the flop. The turn card is where you'll make your money from, I think. I don't mind raising or donking the turn since the 10 is a scary card. I don't mind making a semi-bluff in this spot since the straight draw has hit. I could raise/call and fold UI on the river, OR bet/call if raised. The ace on the river sucks because now you're inclined to call with two pair even though your only ahead against someone who have a lower two pair. If I raised on the turn and gets 3bet back I actually don't have a problem folding 2 pair on the river.
