Re: 5-10 stud hi lo two baby pairs on 4th vs 3draws.

What do you think about folding 7th street? Or if you call one bet, can or should you fold if it gets raised or 3-bet?

I see a possible flush draw, someone who could have hit three of a kind, and...

You take a reasonably sized random sample, n, from a population of size N. Then you find an additional x*N elements of the population. (I don't think it will matter too much, but let's say x is...

Re: (razztoberfest) a hand against jacksquat - fold, will ya?

Re: Hmmmmmm (30/60 razz)
