Grunch...

I think I would raise the flop here, and see what kind of action I get. You are very likely to have the best hand here and if you were reraised on the flop then I think you could revert to WA/WB.

Are you waiting for the turn to try to cut down the pot odds for a flush draw if a brick hits the turn? Also a brick on the turn increases you own hand value does it not?

Edit: Dang, I didn't think about this earlier but I wanna keep my first reaction up the anyway for critique, but a flush draw would've raised it up already. So, what are we waiting to raise the turn for? Increase in value when a brick hits the turn?

And in other news, Miles, having run out of suitable adversaries in Micros, has taken to fighting with himself. Film at eleven.

Talking to yourself is usually either a sign of genius or insanity. The fact that you're doing it on an interent form makes one category more likely than the other.

I think waiting til the turn is the right move here. We're not gonna see a 3 bet from SB very often and when we do we're usually in trouble anyways, so folding the other 2 players is more likely to give SB the equity we hope to gain by cutting down the number of people in this pot.

Raising will not protect your hand at any point here, although this is a spot where you should at least consider waiting for the turn to raise. Do you see why?

[/ QUOTE ]

i dont see why.. :,(

the more i look at it the more i want to find a raise somewhere. i see now that i dont have much chance for a protection raise. even if i wait for the turn to raise everyone is going to be getting ~1:6.5 (or more) to call. so if someone is on a flush draw they call profitably.

so why is raising the turn better?
