Default Re: 2 hands Stud hi 1/2

Hand 1:
Raising on 5th last to act against a better hand and a likely better draw seems like quite the spew. Given the reraise on 5th, you have to think at least trips...given that, I think the river raise is foolish, but so is playing the hand on 4th....show how much errors compound themselves. You called 4th and are now chasing a hand that if it gets there might not even be the winner.

Hand 2:
As I said, its read dependent. If you think you won't get reraised and you think the other hands would call a paired door full bet but not a raise then go for it. Chances are at least one of them is folding anyway so i would just call and not bloat the pot any further with your dog hand. Once you make the pot that big I guess you might have the odds to chase your 2 Kings if you get 3 bet? no probably not.
