Tournament Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.
Practice Matters
If you have suited cards in the hole
If you have suited cards in the hole the odds of making a flush with all five community cards is about 4%. Only about 1 in 25. Again, not very good.
In addition, chasing a flush
In addition, chasing a flush after flopping a draw is usually not a lucrative play. Most decent players will not give you correct odds for chasing your draw. If you should happen to make your flush, you will most likely, not be getting good implied odds, either.
