9 and 17, What the heck are you talking about?

13. You are a big vague here, I wish you would define your idea as overcards and then leak. A huge leak IS going to far with your overcards, especially when the opposition wont fold.
I see players focus so much on how to play over-cards and deal with flush draws when their games have massive gapping leaks, just just about any point on that list. I see lots of funny plays justified by "punishing the flush draw". They just don't get that in limit a flush draw is a REALLY good hand, particularly in a loose game. The flush draw ain't chasing shit, he's probably got a shitload of equity.
