Five Card Draw: Have You Ever Seen?

[Bedz]

Murakawa, I think a lot of good things comes from that the people who play draw aren't as many as plays hold'em.
First, you get to know the same people better personally, and you have a lot more fun discussions at the table.
Secondly, you get to know the same players playing style better to, and there is actually a chanse to play the same guy who plays bad a few days in a row. Both with notes and in your head. It is much more easy to keep track of say 20-30 players in you head then there is with the masses that is playing hold'em.
Of course, I play lower stakes, so there are more players playing there.
And for those who want it to get bigger (I want that to, but there are some good things that comes from a small circuit) get ONE draw event into the WSOP, and I think the game would grow!

There was a draw event in the WSOP in the early days but the phenomenal rise of hold'em eclipsed it.

I agree that you can study players more if the pool of players is small and I play at Paradise with its small pool of players but on the flipside there needs to be more fish.

Okay, we are all familiar with the four straight/four flush semi-bluff and we know that players over do it. They employ from under the gun even. However, I just wanted to know how many players, if any have you met, who are willing to three-bet it and then bet out postdraw?

Today, I came across a degenerate bluffer who 4bet whilst playing heads up with a draw, I checkcalled with my pair postdraw and won or did I improve on the draw? Who knows? Not seen it four bet until today.

I'd buy a chunk at par.

[Murakawa]

I'll tell you what. If I don't get to the final table but cash, I'll pay you the buy in from my winnings. If I do make it, we'll call it 50/50!

I wonder what first place in that tourney will pay... I just hope I win it.
