Message: [QUOTE="Crippler450, post: 343835, member: 5306"] I really dont agree with you here chi. If you're playing a 5 or 6 player game and you have a decent but certainly not good starting hand, I think it would be a good idea to call the blinds often. If you have a Q 4 and the flop is 2 7 Q, sure you could lose some chips because of your kicker...but it wont happen very often. If you raise on the flop, you can feel out your opponents to see if they have a Q also. If they dont and just caught 2nd pair, you can make a decent amount from them. The chances of them happening to have a Q is pretty low (thats 3 Qs in only 7 cards...your hand, his hand, and the flop). Even better, your opponent will have a very tough time putting you on a hand, so you can make a lot if you hit a strong hand. [/QUOTE]
