Re: Bluffing the Flush
[ QUOTE ]
Sorry, can someone tell me the what bluffing an OESD looks like compared to bluffing the flush? I'm assuming the board represents both a potential straight and a potential flush. Why don't they look the same.

The idea is that you have a straight draw, and there is a flush draw possible (2 suited cards on the board). When the 3rd suited card appears, you raise and make it appear that you were drawing the flush all along (or, the straight + the flush or some other combo draw). So you have all your "real" outs for the straight and also some "scare" outs for the flush, which you don't have.
When it works, you're brilliant, when it doesn't you just lost most of your stack.
