Re: Preflop odds to play speculative hands such as K3s
If your hand isn't strong enough to raise in the small blind , then it probably should be dumped .
It's a limped pot so even if you hit your flush (almost never) , you aren't likely to win a monster pot anyway . Two-thirds of the time , your hole cards do not pair the board and you'll be forced to give up the pot (unless you occasionally bluff) . When you do hit about one-third of the time , you'll have to put more money into the pot to find out if it's best .
So your true odds are not really 5:1 . It may be something like 5:2 or 5:3 .
