Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

Why did you c/r 4th instead of bet? I think betting is way better. Pull'em in yo

After it played out like it did though on 4th then check raising is good because your equity is fiyah

Fif, seis, and 7 are good though

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

I was looking for a spot where you could've/should've done something differently, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Well played all the way through.

I like and agree to your 4th street play VERY much; it's deceptive, and because of that, it may cause your opponents to make a mistake later on. It's important to not become too predictable in this game(especially at this limit and higher). Again, well played, imo.

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

The only thing to do differently is upgrade your pattern mapper so you can fold four-flushes that won't come in.

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

If he folds, he misses out on sweeping this pot.

I bet out on fourth, but I like the way this was played.

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

Could somebody give me their thinking on the 4th street bet vs. check/raise issue? Does he want the highs out and the lows in? The lows out and the highs in? Everybody in? Everybody out? Everybody pot stuck and chasing?

What's the plan here?

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

Looks good to me Blump, I like your lines on every street

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

seat 1's fourth street play is so weird.

467 of hearts?

Seat 1 would obviously bet the river with a straight...but yes, it looks like it could be that on 6th street, sure.

Re: 30/60 Stud8 743s
 

Looking at the cards that were out I think you played the hand poorly. After 5th you are better off in check call mode. You hand is not that powerful after you started bricking. Plus, the guy with the 45 had to have something good to raise with. Then again, I probably don't know what I am talking about.
