I think for example there are lots of spots where you should peel with a gutshot, but not with a J high flush draw.

This is a very helpful comment...

Here is an example of a hand where I got to the river with a J high flushdraw. Should I be folding the turn?:

5 limpers to me. I raise with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. One fold. Threebet. I think its 7 handed for fourbets (cuz i capped).

Flop comes J high with two hearts. I check and call one bet. It's five handed. Turn comes a blank. I check and call one bet. Still five callers. River is another blank. I fold to a bet.

Obviously, if this were limit hold em, I'd c/r the flop, bet the turn for value, and probably bet the river for value. So valuing non-nut draws in huge pots is one of the problems I'm having.
