Can you give me an example of a draw-heavy board?

An example of a draw-heavy board post-flop that can expose tight players who underbluff would be something like:

Flop: Q♥ J♦ 8♣

This flop contains an open-ended straight draw, a flush draw, and a high card. Some tight players who miss this flop may check behind, reluctant to bluff. If I hold a strong made hand like top pair, I can make sizable bets on this flop to target such players. Those who call me too often without a strong made hand reveal themselves as easy targets going forward. Draw-heavy flops are perfect spots to identify underbluffing tendencies in tight opponents.
 
If the flop or turn contains multiple cards that potentially link with potential strong hands, it is said to be draw-heavy or drawy. For instance, players might have the opportunity to have a straight draw, flush draw, or combo draw on a flop of 2-9-10 with two hearts.
