Actually im not sure it will be more profitable...
in the situation he described the Flush draw has a 25.5%, the set has a 35.5% the straght has a 38.5% chance of winning, .5% chance of tie.

So even though he is favored to win against any single player, he is not favored against 2 opponents and will lose money in the long run.

Don't forget how big the pot will be.

It'll be a winning move in the long run.

Bingo.
