Default Re: Razz 0.5/1 on Stars: played correctly?

Thanks. Any discussion is appreciated.

[ QUOTE ]
4th: without specific reads, villain's raise strongly indicates A+small in this spot. IMO a bad play, it allows you only to better judge where you stand. I'm undecided about your reraise. Clearly, you're ahead here, and three possible bricks are dead (862). Still, I find it somewhat optimistic and on later streets it's getting more difficult to get away because of the pot odds.

I really didnt give 4th much thought as I figured I was solidly ahead here.
I just 2dimes'd it now, giving him A2 in the hole, and I'm 2:1 favourite.
Surely I should be raising here ??

The K on 5th was really one of the worst cards to catch, apart from pairing
my board, as anything else would have looked super-scary to opp.

5th: given the 4th street tell, I'd consider folding here, with calling a close second. Villain might hold A2, A4, A5, A6, possibly A7.

Perhaps the big mistake was here. I'm still not sure...

I feel these are very standard Razz situations that I dont
100% understand.

6th: Fold. You have T8 at this time and Villain pretty sure has 432A. If he holds a 5, a 6, a 7 or even an 8, you're dead. He might have bricked, but I don't think a T-low with a prospect of becoming an 8-low is any good.


[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. If I credit him with 2 unpaired babies I'm 100% toast here.
I guess without knowing how he is playing I should give up here
every time. If he is a tilt-monkey/awful I can continue but only then.

[ QUOTE ]

7th: Ok. You're getting more than 9:1 and if he hit a brick to his hole card A kicker and the river didn't help that's fine. (again, without reads, he might also be a terrible player, be on tilt etc.)

Does this make sense?

Yes, thanks.
