This looks like a strong draw but I can almost guarantee your flush outs are dead, which means you need to hit your straight or the straight flush(which is included in your straight cards). Basically you are drawing to an open ended straight, n2m someone might already have a flush which means you're drawing to 2 outs. Not to mention the fact that even if you're not up against a better flush draw, you're likely up against 2pr or a set which also have redraws to a boat when you do even happen to get there.


edit: once u decided to lead out and make the pot a total of 500, your only option is to push over his raise so, leading out lets the hand play itself. Just pray that all your outs are clean.

I m not sure this draw is a strong as it looks. Question for all; can you fold to the raise on this flop?

the way i see it you have 6 true outs (sevens and Qs) to the most likely hand for villan whcih IMHO is piece of flop and flush draw that beats yours. chance of MP1 having a higher diamond are extremely good in my opinion. A9,QJ,KJ, even AT with one d are all real possiblities.

What hands can he have that you beat? AJ/KJ maybe PP with no diamond i guess. l since you are pot committed if you call; what do you all think of a fold here?

i agree (see my post). but i wonder if you still cant get away after this reraise. pot is 500 you have ~1000 left and you would be pot committeed if you call; but not if you fold here imho.

thoughts?
