Was the call on 5th too aggressive? What about the raise on 4th?

That format is really hard to follow. You should use the hand converter instead (see the FAQ for the link). Also, please don't post results in your initial post, it will skew the comments you get.

To the hand in question, I think once he calls on 4s when he catches a blank you have to give him credit for a pair, most likely Jacks. Once he pairs the Jack on 5th, you are behind so the raise is full and complete spewage. I actually favor folding here since I think he has trips so much more often than some random 2 pair (although at that level you never know). Nice catch on 6th though.

Interestingly enough your a HUGE dog vs trips, but even if he has two pair with the Jack being the high pair like (3h 3d)Jh then the villain is still an 8% favorite over the hero's pair of A's.

I dont like how you played that street, raising is really spewing. In fact when you weigh the odds of his possible down card combinations it turns this hand into a fold.

This makes my head hurt. Please use the Full Tilt converter.

Fold 5th.... Raising was silly....
Trying to follow this text was difficult.

apparently limited studs rewards bold, aggressive calls in the same way that unlimited hold them does.
