stud high - 3/6

[uwda]

Here's an other 3rd street question. Do I call and hope one of the kings completes? If they do, do I re-raise? Or, do I go ahead and complete now?

just go ahead and complete.. the kings may make it two bet's anyway.

[PoorLawyer]

I think the only time I would limp here is if the game has been so aggressive that you are almost certain that someone will complete after you. If not then just complete right away. Your hand is disguised and if either of them has Kings they will probably raise anyway and you can get in an extra bet.

[Jeffage]

Raise every time and hope to be reraised. AA is a great hand but it still plays best against fewer people - it can easily be cracked at stud.

So nobody likes the limp-reraise, huh? Well, it didn't work anyway. Damn. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

Here's the rest of the hand. I wonder if I played 5th and 6th correctly.

Uwda,

I think you should raise here, unless the table is particularly tight or something. And hey, if you raise, maybe the king will re-raise, and then you're good to go

[PoorLawyer]

Obviously, good catch on the river. I think this illustrates why you raise right away though. You didn't and, consequently, half the table stayed in the hand. On 5th you are likely behind once the board pairs...good chance that guy's hand is in the muck on 3rd if you raise right away.
