Really can't. Any 5 or pocket 7's and you're drawing virtually deadOn the other hand, you have to call the turn raise, and probably one more on the river

That wont help at all....unless A 6 7 K is a flush. :-)

Which is, hilariously, exactly what I did.He had Q9 and hit his 5 on the river for the higher straight.I was pretty surpried.

when I want it to be a flush, I say its a frush, damnit. hmmmm maybe that's why I've lost some $$$ on that, lol. I think I had just woke up when I wrote that

while it was a bit of a slip up mentioning the diamond, it still helps. with the flush draw on the board, it should put some caution on the other guy, and if he has indeed made his straight, he may be looking to CR, leaving you the option to get out without losing as much money.
