Re: How valuable are implied odds in stud?
No one has ever accused me of being loose in any poker game and I raise the Ace in any kind of high ante game.
I call the raise in a high ante game (if the other player is loose enough in later streets or weak enough to take the pot away) hoping to catch good -- some percent of the time. If the other player is a nit, I fold, if the player is unknown I fold.
The second is close but there are situations where it is likely OK.
My 2cents.
