HE player tries stud8b-How did I do?
 

I'm trying out Stud 8b after playing lots of HE. Here's what I was thinking on each street, how did I play the hand and was my thought process good?

3rd-Bring in for mimium trying to disguise my hand
4th-Pick up a low draw, so I'll peel 1 last to act
5th-I may be beat and drawing to 2nd best low here. Is betting to see where I'm at a bad idea? Is my call ok?
6th-My 2 pair should be good right? I wantend an overcall from Nath's low or low-draw. Looking back I think I raise here to try and fold Nath and clean up my low outs.
7th-When Failus checks, I think my 2 pair is good. bet for value

Re: HE player tries stud8b-How did I do?
 

I would raise when it comes back to me on third street. I would raise fourth. I would probably bet fifth, but I'm OK with the chicken-call. Sixth is confusing enough that I think that calling is just fine. I do like the river bet.

Re: HE player tries stud8b-How did I do?
 

I would be more aggresive on 3rd and 4th. I dont mind 5th because the other guyh has a scary board.

Why is the action on you first on the river? hhmmmm, If I was checked to I would DEF bet.

That was my fault in editing the OP. The first action should have been Seat 5 checking.
