Default Re: a 10/20 hand a friend played

So basically Hero can get 2 BB in by 3-betting the flop and leading the turn, or c/r the turn. Getting those two bets in on a non-heart turn, when the flush draw(s) have half the equity, is better IMO than getting one of those bets in on the flop.

If Hero bets the flop and you cap, he's getting 2-3BBs in now, and another 2-3 on the turn. If he waits, and he's right about it not getting checked through (a big if) He'll get the same number of big bets on the turn.

Even if you managed to put 2 big bets cold to bus on the turn, he is unfortunately still getting the odds to call.

You can't protect your hand from the flush draw, but you should be worried about protecting your hand from non flush draws. If Rich or the button is ~3/45 to improve with a queen with a weaker kicker, You should wait until the turn when you could have a chance to face Rich with 2BB cold in a roughly 13BB pot.

Of course, this is all assuming we're ahead on the flop. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
