Re: 2/4 Stud High- 554
Great to see you posting again, CJ. There are plenty of times you can and should call full bets/raises on third street. Of course that's mostly with drawing hands. Here, I think raising on third is worse than calling. Most of the time, if someone has called $1, he's going to call another $3. I'm not saying it's right--I'm just telling it like it is. So you're building a big, multi-way pot with a crap hand. If this were going to be heads-up, calling or raising would be less terrible, but folding would still be better.
Having called third, I think calling one bet and then the next is OK, but you certainly wouldn't call two bets cold. This is one problem with playing a dog like 554.
