Big drawing hand--take the free card, or build the pot?

A good feeler bet is about 25% of the pot. If you have a straight or a flush draw with over cards and your opponent has a pair I don't think you're the favorite..maybe the flush with overs, but the bet will let you know were you are in the hand and who knows you may be able to pick up the pot right there.

This is a bad post.

You have a big draw, you're in the 35-55% equity area, you don't need to find out where you are.


I agree with above, pot equity + a small injection of fold equity = profit.
