I'd probably play it the same. It'd be pretty unlikely you're behind for high on 6th so I'd keep firing away like you did.

Stars recently made a change in their HH that makes the convertor not show the BI properly.

[Mllndllrmn]

You gotta ask yourself if you think 2 bets is worth seeing if he made a scoop with a straight. I think he thought you were going for low, and missed with the K, so he figured he locked up low, and was betting value. Could have hit the inside straight, but there was no way you would know that cos of his board, and the fact that youhave two of the fives. Correct plays on both streets.

[Ralph Wiggum]

I don't think Villain starts w/ 578 (this should be a fold on 3rd, right?), so I call down, assuming this is going to be split.

I put villain on something like A3. You guys are chopping. I guess you also have to bet sixth, since the 4 could've paired him.

[Spladle]

You played this hand perfectly. If he had 57 in the hole he should have raised fifth but some people are retarded so slowing down is the right play.

I really have no idea what he's got. Nothing makes sense.

[PokerJans]

Hey everyone -

What is our play on 6th if our King is replaced with a 7?

[Ralph Wiggum]

You bet 6th, just like Hero did. If Villain still raised you, that'd be messed up. You're showing a 7-low, but villain is then repping 75 & saying he doesn't care.

OP: What did villain have?

[Lt Barclay]

villian had 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 10[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the hole and caught perfect on 5th [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

[Truthiness24]

Anyone who lets you lead him like that with 7Ts in the hole is someone you should want to keep playing. There is no way you could put him on that, and I think you have to pay off. I think you played it right.

[Andy B]

I'll say bet and call a raise.
