Perfecto. Ahh the limp behind is so deadly at the right table...

Re: Limp behind hand in razz
 

I'd understand if you reraise when he completes by why limp there, i can't see that being +EV in the long run. You are asking for people to catch cards. Also you can very well be behind on 5th here I'm not usually raising with an 87, I'd call. The rest is fine.

The raise on 5th is likely intended to sandwich Seat 6, who called with a T-9 here. The +EV from getting Seat 6 to fold or put more money in the pot usually outweighs the possible -EV from maybe being behind here against Seat 2.

Re: Limp behind hand in razz
 

ah true I overlooked seat 6 sorry. Yep right move. Nice hand.

Re: Limp behind hand in razz
 

Seat 6 is stone dead, raising is incorrect on 5th.

Re: Limp behind hand in razz
 

makes sense, but you don't want seat 6 drawing your live cards and take away from your hand while the 86 holds?

Besides I don't think seat 6 is sticking around on 6th regardless if either one of them catches good. Seat 6 already put in his wasted money and got out like he should.

[/ QUOTE ]Are you claiming that the presence of seat 6 in the hand is going to affect the probability that hero hits his hand?

If so, I suggest you revisit basic probability or spend enough time with a deck of cards until you've satisfied yourself that isn't the case.

FYP

and you are, of course, correct

Re: Limp behind hand in razz
 

I ran the numbers with rusty and it seems a call is the best play on 5th. Raising puts you in a bad position with the 86 and letting seat 6 draw to a 7 gives him only a 3% chance of making that 7.
