Default Re: Live 6/12: Straight Draw on the button

Folding preflop is correct.

35s would be a call for one bet PF only the button only, with 3 limpers in.

So, we assume that you flopped an OESD on a rainbow board.

Raise for free card play is probably good on this flop, as a rainbow flop. If it's a two flush flop (and not of the suit for your suited 35s) then you have to discount your outs, and a free card play is also giving a free card to anyone chasing a flush.

Also, free card plays are pretty obvious, so if you take a free card on the turn and make it on the river, you are less likely to get paid off.

So free card plays are cheap, but I'm not certain they are max EV.
