Okay, so I have played some of the .50-1 L5CD on Stars. Pretty fun. Starting to get a bit of a handle on the game. Something I have been noticing here and there is some players standing pat on hands like 2 pr or a set etc. I assume they are doing this to sort of be deceptive and steal the pot on the last betting round, or giving the impression that they already started with a big hand etc? I also see some players only drawing 2 cards to their big pairs as well. Is this for deception also? I haven't done this play of standing pat except on a made hand like a str8 or a flush. I usually still get paid off when I stand pat so I haven't found a good opportunity to do so and try and add some deception to my hands. Anyone throw in this move here and there? Isn't it better at this low level to simpy play str8 forward?
