Re: A8s, huge flop
[ QUOTE ]
James, do you want to make an argument for why a call on the flop is okay/best?

the only other draw is a gutter. it really only has 3 outs since we have the FD so they need 14.67-1 to correctly call. going for overcalls in this tiny pot will still cause them to draw incorrectly. plus, if we call and someone raises behind us we can 3bet and really build a pot.
i guess it shouldn't be completely neglected the times our raise manages to isolate a better hand and charge us to draw.
if the pot was larger(even just a couple sb) i would prefer raising. if i had a read that we would get some coldcallers or more action i would prefer raising. without that info i don't mind going for the overcalls and getting a few more smallbets in the pot while also preserving our implied odds. i can probably come up with more, but this is just off the top of my head.
