Default Re: Another 88 hand

You're WA/WB if either you or your opponent hast few outs to improve IF he needs improvement. "Few" meaning less than 5.

Say you have AK and cap it against an extremely tight and relatively passive opponent. Flop comes K72rainbow. He bets. Now, IF he has AA or KK, which his action indicates, you're drawing dead. If he has worse, HE's virtually drawing dead.

In OPs example, there are draws out there and if he has OCs, he has 6 outs twice to beat us. So he often has 6, but may have up to 14 or even more if he holds J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], exactly.
So in any case he's not WB, but might be WA already (he has a T)

I see. Thanks fellas. Didn't have a complete understanding of WA. I always just thought it meant we were ahead, but not "ahead with villain having few outs"

I think theres enough in the pot to defend ur hand. I would raise and see what happens on the turn (if ur even called). You dont have to be beat, FD out there, he could be betting A3, A6, 55 etc. i think you take down the pot here enough to raise. by raiseing the flop, ur getting 3.75-1 on ur raise. With the amount of hands out there BB could be better, i like the price.
