Destroying implied odds?

[ISillyDurrrAK]

It means that if u don't have enough players to raise your draws profitably (u need at least 3 villains to raise OESD for value and and two to raise FD and 1 to raise monsterdraws in the vacuum with no other factors like fold equity considered) you are loosing money in the long run. What u want is to trap opponents so that they are forced to stay in the pot.

vs 1 opponent on flop I'd have made a mistake of forcing playes behind me out with my raise, but with two it was a value raise and there was no need to think about what players behind me would do. But as u see the guy behind me called my raise, so it was even easier for me to cap it for value
