Re: Stud-hi beginner question.
It depends on which cards are dead, and how tight/passive the table is. With the $1 ante $5/10 game you mention I feel this hand will always be worth a raise first in with just the one overcard behind you - unless there are a pile of dead cards out. If many flush cards are dead, but your pair and straight cards are live I'd always raise - if the flush cards are very live I'd play it a bit slower and try to encourage customers.
You can't steal all of those big fat antes in this tight/passive game if you don't raise 3rd. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
