Beating the Draw: 2

5-card-draw-11Raising ranges are important to understand when you are working to keep from missing your draw. You need to assign them right to your fellow players. See, sometimes an opponent may only raise when they have a strong two pair at the very least. However, others may raise at any time. You thus need to start paying attention to some telltale clues, such as your opponents’ pre draw bets.

For example, if a player limps, calls, or bets a small amount and then draws three cards, he or she likely has a pair.

If a play limps and then draws two cards, he or she likely has a pair along with a solitary king or ace.

if a play limps or calls and then draws a single card, he or she likely has either a small two pair hand or perhaps a draw leading to a straight or a flush.

Nor are these the only telltale betting clues; more in the next post, though.
