JTs settle a disagreement with DeathDonkey

Yeah, this is something I've been thinking about. If we raise and get 3-bet and the players in between go away, well, that's not the greatest result, but we did just improve our chances of winning if that 3-bet is coming from 99 or even TT.

And if we get 3-bet by AK (a possibility Josh mentioned), I'm not sure we should mind that much at all.

But the flop decision affects the overcards in other ways as well. For example calling would be very successful if you turned a jack or ten, the overcards checked, and one of the limpers sticks in a bet with a piece or draw. Now you get to put in a killer raise and destroy the field including the PFR.

I'm sure there are other good arguments why the overcards favor either calling or raising.

How about the fact that we might sometimes win the pot without a showdown?
