Played the following hand on FT and thought I played it well based on reads and my early position. However, I've had comments that the hand was played poorly. Also, since this "new" game has been added on FT there seems to be a lot of players who overvalue their hands. Is Draw poker the truest form of poker, especially at higher stakes? Draw appears to be an opportunity to make some profit with some weaker players just trying the game. I pulled out Doyle's original Super System and have started browsing through the section written perfectly by Mike Caro. Most of Mike's comments are based on "live" reads and how each player handled cards before the draw, etc. The game is limit and played with a Joker. What nuiances, differences would you apply to an on-line pot limit draw game? Of course this hand was played at micro limits and nobody's laying down two pair or even aces, but what a game of chicken at high limits!! I haven't seen any of the FT pros playing Draw.
