HOW TO PLAY SPECIFIC HANDS


How to Play jeux poker When You Flop a Flush
The higher your flush, the less vulnerable your hand.
Unless you have some specific reason to believe that a checkraise attempt will work or that you should slowplay the hand, you should usually bet it right out. This is one of those hands that produces a higher than usual number of second-best hands and drawing hands.
If you flop a flush and bet, you will be called more often than usual, but on the other hand you will be drawn out on a little more often than usual That's because the players on a flush draw won't believe that you flopped the flush and the only other types of hands that can call will be pairs, two pairs and trips.
If a fourth or even a fifth card of your suit shows up, be alert for the straight flush. Making a straight flush in anyone given hand is very unlikely but if you stipulate that you can start with five cards of the same suit and up to ten players can add two more cards to those five, then it becomes easy to make a straight flush. This is especially true when the lowest card on the board is relatively high, such as a five or six. This is also true when three or four of the cards are close in rank.
The play of a flopped flush is pretty much straightforward:
Make them pay to beat you.
The lower your flush, the more vulnerable your hand. Any card of your suit can kill your hand unless you have an open-end straight flush draw to go with your flush. Because of that fact, you must bet. If a flush card comes on the river and you know that someone has made the flush, but you can't figure out who it was, I want to tell you that more often than not, it's the player who checked and called throughout the hand and is now betting into you.
The player who flopped a hand will bet to protect his hand.
The player on the draw will usually check and call. If the caller raises on the end, you can be sure he made his hand.
