3Bet after draw?

5 Card Draw looks like it would make for a very fun no-limit game.

There is a pot-limit version that has some traffic on Stars, and there is a no-limit one as well, but way to pricey for my bankroll.

The fun one is NL 2-7 single draw.
That one is basically playing chicken -- only with cards.

If you have AKQJT, you beat 50% of his pat hands.

HU NL 5CD is my favourite HU game.

With regard to the hand, it's close to a situation that I've analysed in our book, which is a capped pot predraw with both players pat. In that case, a K high flush is right on the borderline between call and raise here, and I suspect it's still close between call and bet/call in this hand. The point is that you need slightly better than AKQJT, the median pat hand, to raise, because there's the threat of another bet going in, assuming that you're never folding.

If memory serves the median pat hand is AKQJT, median flush is KJ???, I’d say easy raise in FL, mostly play NL these days and not much of it so would be making a decision more based on HUD stats in NL/PL

If I raise and face a re-raise I make a fishy call and try and justify it by telling myself it’s worth paying 1 BB to not appear exploitable

Also, although it’s near impossible to assign a numerical value to it there’s always some possibility he’s snowing

If when you raise you are committed to call a reraise from your opponent , then your hand should beat 2\3 of his range which as you said is from a wheel to a royal flush. To determine that requires some heavy duty math. If you raise instead of calling in effect you are committing 3 bets to win 2, and will break even if you win 2/3 of the time.

I think I will raise here and call, if he reraise. his range is any str8/ flush/ FH. I hope getting some value from his str8 and other not A high flush.

Hi,
first thing is that you have no image at all in this limit, players are mostly fishy, they are looking at their cards and no one cares about you
But lets say you have nitty image, then if you are better than median pat hand which is probably AKQJT, then there is value in raising and calling raise.
This player wont fold A2345 to raise and if he 3bets then you have to call 0,5 to 5,25 pot which means you have to have best hand less than 1 out of 10 times and i'm sure you have correct pot odds here.
Fun starts when SB 3bets after your raise:). I think he is full of fulls and you could fold then. Unless hes a fish playing nl holdem because such players can overplay many hands r

I would call here. On the same note as jbpatzer explained I read somewhere that raising in this situation needed at least an Ahi flush.
All of this assuming you don't know a lot of villain in these situations.

I'm kind of a read/note freak maybe...
