Stud Hi (amusing hand)
 

Yesterday I was off at the low limit high-ante roller-coaster rides again. Found some uber-live ones and got my ass raped by donkeys who god knows what they were thinking. Found rolled ups 5 times, yet only won once with them.

I'm not trying to make this post into a sad story or bad beat thread. Just thought I'd post the rolled up hand where I actually didn't get drawn out on by utter trash, and see if anyone can make any sense on what the hell goes through these players minds?

I took all my beats quietly, though I cringed when I saw one rock make a bluff-blocking bet, then get called by a player who couldn't even beat a bluff... then he berrated the horrible player for calling when he couldn't even beat a bluff.

That bad player left 3 hands later, and I was pretty mad about it!

Re: Stud Hi (amusing hand)
 

I'm not sure why you're still betting and raising after seat 5 finally folds. Seat 7 was playing like he had something like Ah 6h in the hole. You got lucky here, but you will usually be getting free-rolled by a made low trying to hit their flush and/or straight. Hell, for that matter he could have already made his straight and low and you could be drawing to 8 outs to salvage half the pot.

**********

What probably went through their minds is that YOU were a donkey and you're trying to buy the pot. An offsuit 2T on 4th isn't exactly threatening, and if you were playing as recklessly on earlier hands as you were on this one, I don't know that I'd blame them (though I'd definitely have waited on a better hand to play back).

This seems unlikely.

The made straight does seem unlikely. Do you really think a made low with a hi draw seems unlikely?

Re: Stud Hi (amusing hand)
 

Somewhere in the realm of 0%.

I guess it does pay to know the game the poster is playing before I comment.

Edit: It was even in the title of the post.

Re: Stud Hi (amusing hand)
 

I would have slowed down a little sooner. Whatever.

This site allows double bets on fourth with no pair showing?

Re: Stud Hi (amusing hand)
 

Andy, I noticed that double bet on fourth earlier and was also puzzled myself. I'm not TOO experienced with the stud-converter so wasn't sure if it was some bug, or if I was missing the obvious.
