Another multiway stud/8 hand

All the Villains in the hand are very loose, playing over half their hands dealt. Seat 7 is especially bad and goes berserk if he has a big pair on 3rd.

I don't know if I have a raise on 5th,...

stud/8 hand, what a mess

Seat 6 is new to me but I quickly determined he's terrible. He's playing over 80% of his hands and goes absolutely crazy with a big pair early.

The others in the hand have relatively normal...

Re: (stud8) how best to handle 4th st?

[ QUOTE ]

Re: (stud8) how best to handle 4th st?

I'd prefer that the low draws fold.

How about having a more realistic goal? No one is folding a low draw on fourth.

P.S. Fold third.

Re: aces in stud 8

Aces can be frustrating because of hands like this (obv). Holding a big kicker and seeing another Ace jamming away early on in a multi-way pot makes me ensure I don't get married to my hand. You...
