    Default Slow or fast?

    What do you guys usually do with big draws (OESD/Flush draw, pair with a flush draw, etc.)?

    When is it better to play them slow/fast?

    How come my only option is to play them slow or fast? What about folding?

    would you really fold 15+ outs (barring extraordinary circumstances that is)?? what about OESFD + 2 overcards??

    In a tourney where the pot has already developed into something nice, I like to push/semibluff big draws. In a ring game I play them just like any other draws (passively, checking/calling), unless I feel like mixing it up.

    You are talking about massive draws here and, to be fair, I don't think this is what Scuba means. I think he means folding an OESD or a flush draw is a perfectly feasible play.

    the reason the replies suck is because your post is way too general. Post some hands.

    If he would have said, how do you play when you have likely 50% pot equity, I would have answered as such, but when you just say the draw, you don't have that pot equity.

    depends really.... hwo bigs the blinds and how many chips you have!!!

    If your low on chips- Push
    If you high on chips- Price your own bets, if your gonna have to call a bet you might as well bet yourself... its amazing how manyy times ive bet the flop, turn and river and people fold to the river bet (asuming you missed your draw)
    Nobody dies a virgin, the river screws us!!!!

    my mistake, seems i misread the OP, thought he was talking OESFD and the like. didnt seem to make much sense to ask how to play a regular draw.
