Flopped Straight+ FD (6.50)

    Default Flopped Straight+ FD (6.50)

    Ok completing here is marginal but with 2 limpers and half price i couldn't resist. 2 players in the pot were agressive and were betting at every pot so i figured a big check/raise would be the best play. We are getting it in on the flop here everytime correct?

    I like it with your read. Obv if they're passive stations you should just lead. I usually don't complete with worse than a suited one-gapper, though. 3 gaps you're drawing to one straight only... That reminds me, i think my favourite suited gapper is 79 of spades. I've hit such beautiful flops with that hand twice recently..

    I fold preflop.
    I used to play these hands and I can see your argument (pot of 175 only having to call 25), but even for that 95s is a bit too marginal.
    I play suited connectors or suited (one) gappers in this spot and some worse hands with more callers.
    Postflop is obviously fine, you have almost always the nuts and redraws, why you post it?
    I am just another learning player, so read my comments (very) open minded.

    Easy fold pre-flop, I dont think its marginal at all.
