If I'm just on the FD then with the pot swollen by the call and with a little bit of fold equity I'm about even here. And with a potential multiway and knowing that WinstonSomme is a donk I think this is EV+ against most their ranges. Thoughts?

Oly   United Kingdom. Apr 18 2008 19:07. Posts 3585 For some reason I always feel it's bad, especially multiway, to go crazy on the flop without the nut draw. I'd probably be a bit more cagey about this one, but I don't play fullring so whatever. It seems that on this flop 4way your never going to be actually flipping (usually like 38% average or something IF you had the nut draw anyway, since so often it'll be versus set or straight), and your never going to have fold equity if it gets exciting. Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.
