Straight Poker Cards On Board
Straight draws are very deceptive and sometimes difficult to read. Whenever there are three sequenced cards or two cards with a gap of three or less, there is a potential for a straight. In fact, all flops that don’t contain a pair can make a straight with the fourth card except for: K-8-3, K-8-2, K-7-2, and Q-7-2
Many players will play starting hands that have connectors suited or unsuited, or two cards with a single gap. If you see three cards in sequence and there is action you should be thinking straight. If you hold connectors at the low end of the sequence and make a straight, you may be in for a big loss if someone holds the connectors for the higher end.

Poker - Raising
Sometimes it may be to your advantage to raise even if your hand is not the nuts. Some players will bet on the river when they are playing overcards or have missed their draw. If you suspect that a player may be bluffing and you act right after them, a raise may drive out any players after you and narrow the field putting you heads up against the original bettor. For this to work, you have to know the other players and be certain that your hand can win heads up against the original bettor. In most cases you will only raise on the river when you are certain that you have the winning hand.
