Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

Ok, dragged myself away from Final Fantasy XII for a few hours (now if only I could convince them to release III for something besides the DS) and decided I should at least think about poker so I can afford the P3 in order to play FFXIII *drool*

*ahem*

Re: Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

Why are you raising 4th? Your raise will likely just get it heads-up vs the A2, which you don't want when you're drawing to a rough 7 and no high potential. The rest looks pretty standard. I'd probably also bet the river with Seat 6 checking it to me.

Re: Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

I would just call on fourth. Other than that it looks fine.

Re: Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

I'd only raise 4th here with a hand that can scoop more easily. Like if you caught a 6 instead of a 7.

Re: Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

Everything but fourth looks fine. Call on 4th, you could be raising a better low and driving out some high dead money.

Re: Bremen\'s continuing suckage at stud8
 

i dont like the fourth street raise, besides that I think you played it fine. There really isnt any reason to raise there. You may already be behind in one or both directions, you certainly don't want to play HU against the ace
