    Default Does This Tell Me Something About Implied Odds

    Was 4 tabling $4NL 6 max today and got 67s in the small blind. No raise, I complete, bb checks. Flop gives me a double gutter, 12 cents is bet, I call. Turn gives me the low end of the straight, I fire pot size bet as there is a flush draw now. Villain goes all in for $11 and I had $11 in my stack as well. I tank then call knowing the ONLY thing that beats me is QJ. He has top pair and an open ender I dodge a disaster on the river and the $21.25 pot is mine. My biggest pot I have seen at $4NL never mind actually won.

    Now all this time when it comes to suited connectors I have limped if there are enough limpers before me. I do not cold call preflop raises with suited connectors and I do not open limp with them nor do I call if there is only one limper before me. But have I been wrong?

    I am still learning NL cash games but is what happened today a clear view of just what implied odds are in NL cash games. The profit in the hand was over $10 so because of implied odds should I be calling the 3x the bb preflop raise with these things simply because of implied odds? Obviously today I have seen they can be huge. Ignoring that me and Villain both had largish stacks even a regular $4 stack could be won by hitting something big with a suited connector.

    So what do you more experienced players think. Was this just a fluke or over the LONG TERM are implied odds with suited connectors just something that are too large to ignore? Thoughts please.
