Even then, proceed carefully and only carry oin if you have flopped two pair etc Yup and even if you have something like Q5 on a 2,3,5 flop, it's quite possible that there will be people with 66 or 77 hanging around, or even 44.

With two, more often not...check call or check fold But the key is to mix it up and note the characteristics of the players who are in the pot with you...active?passive?etc etc |
