fold the turn as you are likely drawing to 1 out...bottom fh with that much action at anything but high limit with reads you are losing 100% of the time

oh and that is a clear fold preflop you want your cards acting together and none of the cards in your hand do anything...basically all you have are pocket 4s and they will just lose you money...even if your ace is suited in that hand it is garbage, just muck it pre

Definite fold preflop and the rest of the hand is a perfect example why. Even if you hit your 3rd 4 there things like what happened on the turn can happen. I prefer hands like JT98 (4 cards in a row, preferably double-suited - though your flush still might be behind it still gives you a chance to redraw if you have a made straight with a flush draw on board). The only pair hands I really play are Ts and up, and the other two cards should be close to the paired one (ie. TJJQ or something like that).

definate fold preflop, and on the turn.....small sets are the worst.
