Thanks rob,
If I had have had forthought I would of included it on my last e-mail, but I nevere have letters published!
I must admit, originally I did prefer the K/Q suited for the same reasons but went for the J/10 because of the A,K,Q.....J,10....9,8,7 drawing cards leaving lots of options with getting the gutshot straight draw as well and hopefully limping the turn to convert.
If I where to get the str/fl draw and no one made a bid for the pot, or limped a small bet then it puts you in good shape to make a sizable play for the pot as long as no one else did. Then I would just call unless I was needing chips and then would have to take the gamble.
It was like the last buy-in at poker.com whene I went all-in and you said 'lets gamble' and whene the cards were shown I had an 8 high (I think) flush draw and you had the Q high with just the river to come. Another anomally in my reasoning, two people with two of the same suited cards in their pocket.
Needless to say you won, but it was still a good game.
I find it interesting about Doyle Brunsons favourite drawing hand. It shows perfect resoning as long as there are no overcards on the flop.
Take care,
Dom
