Stud 8: simple question...
Say first to act is a 5 raising into something like 6 J 7 A A 9 3.
You are the second A with (64)A with a live two-flush.
Assume all players are competent.
Is your hand really worth playing here?
Consider you have an A dead, you have no straight potential, and the 5 up presumably has a solid hand and possibly a very big hand.
Also there is the possibility of 3-way action which will be bad for you since I specified all players are competent.
I am starting to downgrade non-wheel and non-3flush A-low hands in stud 8 when I am not opening the pot.
