Message: [QUOTE="Marklar, post: 498916, member: 11166"] I don't know why so many want to make a flush anyway. In No Limit it's not like you're going to get paid off if you hit a flush. In Limit it's only a question of pot odds. What you want is suited connectors and you don't want the flush you want the straight. So the ideal flop is a straight/flush draw with the hopes of making a straight because the implied odds are better. However you have the flush draw as backup. One of the most annoying things is when someone calls your 4-5x rasie (you have AA) your opponent, probably in the big blind, has 82 of hearts and flops two pair. So you figure heh, no big deal I'll get it back from him. Then a tight player stacks him 20 minutes later and your money is in his hands without much of a chance getting it back :P [/QUOTE]
