Default Re: Stud8 - Kinda-steal with kinda-ok hand in kinda-ok spot

I think 3rd is a fold. You have a trash hand. You can't steal the antes, as someone has entered the pot, albeit with a hand that may actually be worse than yours.

The two factors that make it a fold:

1. The Rake. Any edge you might have against the limper's worse trash will be eaten by the rake.

2. The bring-in could have a hand. If he does, you've put yourself in a money-losing spot.

I think you played it fine apart from the initial call.

I didn't call. So do you advocate folding in this spot? I think that seems pretty bad ...
