Re: 2nd nuts on river
[ QUOTE ]
I try to have at least some redraws when pursuing hands like this. The way I see it you had only a couple of runner runners going for you on the flop and even then you could still be beaten.

I don't need redraws if I have the best hand on the flop.

Turn, meh. You picked up a 2nd nut flush so it pretty much means more trouble then actual improvement. There is no way this hand is turning into a sure thing for you.
[/ QUOTE ]There aren't that many hands that are going to be a "sure thing" - you won't be a winning player if you only bet when you have the nuts. And it's rare that someone else has the nuts either.
You say I'm severely punished on the river but you don't whether I won the hand? As played, I'm sometimes ahead and sometimes not. My question to the forum is how often I am ahead and therefore whether or not this is a profitable place to call.
