It depends. Give us some more information about the hand and we can talk about it.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

What were the blinds? Remaining stacks? Flush draw on board?
