Re: How much do the experts remember
You need to try to track all the cards because knowing what's dead could allow you to limit your opponent's range or better estimate his chances. For example, if your opponent's betting out with a...

Re: Stud 8: did I miss a bet?
I play third here for sure because as it is, you're basically playing stud high, and it'd be worth chasing queens down with a 3 flush, an overcard, and all that money in the pot in high-only.

Re: Rolled up
Man, this isn't nearly enough information.
Bottom line, if you're really certain you're drawing to one out, I kinda like a fold. Or at least try to check it down.

Re: aces in stud 8

Re: Stud hi - KK in hole vs probable flushdraw
Actually if you've got absolutely zero info on the villain, I don't even mind a b/c line on 7th, just to see how he plays whatever he's got there. You're almost certainly giving a bet away with the...

Re: Stud hi - KK in hole vs probable flushdraw
If villain had a split pair of nines, he's prolly coming in for a raise on third, given he's just got a 7, 2, and another nine left to act, so I think we can safely discount that. His weak action on...

Re: (stud8) misplayed hi-only hand?
I think it's fine, with the only questionable play being the raise on 5th. Yes, I think you're almost always ahead there, but how often are you WAY ahead? Not very, I don't think.
Anyway, I...

This is hard to answer without specific information. If you're still firing with unimproved aces on the later streets in multiway pots, then you're probably giving a good deal of money away. It's...
