Default Re: Monster Draw played passively on flop

It sucks to have a draw like this and barely be a favorite against any Ace.

What sucks is playing a smal pot with this hand.

You have to rely on how these players play after the flop. You should have some idea if this hand will be bet or not. If you are in doubt that money will be going into this pot, then start betting. The worst case is that you get heads up, and that's still +EV. But you have a lot more to gain on the plus side if things go medium case or best case. In other words, you have more to gain by betting and things going well than you have to lose by betting and things going poorly.
