I like third and fourth. I'm not crazy about the bet on fifth. I really don't like the bets on sixth and seventh.

Re: Higer level thinking or donk? stud 8
 

I sometimes find myself in spots like this where I feel compelled to keep betting in order to get this guy to fold his crappy board. After all, it's what you'd do if you *did* have AA+ right?

I don't know if I'd pay off the river, but I'd be interested to see what crap he was calling me down with. And heck, maybe he's got a 6-low and Ace high is good.

Re: Higer level thinking or donk? stud 8
 

He didn't fold Q7. Why would he suddenly fold Q73?

I think that there's probably at least the necessary 20% chance that AK-high is good on the river. I don't think that we should have made the pot big enough to call, however.

Re: Higer level thinking or donk? stud 8
 

I hate this hand because I think it's played correctly. You bet the river hoping he'll fold if he pairs low and call the raise in case he's raising with a 7 low. It's going to be hard for him to come up w/ a straight since 2 4s and 5s are out, too.

Checking on 5th and giving up works too, though.

Yeah, thinking even more about this, you can't bet 5th.
