First Post
I stumbled across 7CS after a frustrating December at Hold'em. Read Super System chapter by C. Reese, and rediscovered enjoyment in poker.
I would not normally play this hand except I felt reasonably confident because all three were over all other door cards. Seat 8 was playing everything - and I mean everything! Seat 6 I had not watched closely yet. I considered Seat 3 the strongest player at the table. Except for one hand I was likely seen by the table as TAG. I can't remember the error I made prior to this which might have encouraged Seat 6 and 8 to go as far as they did, when earlier they had folded to bets from me. I've analyzed this myself and am interested in your thoughts. Thanks. 7 Card Stud High ($1/$2), Ante $0.10 (converter) Seat 1: $30.35 Hero: $24.75 Seat 3: $57.60 Seat 4: $70.35 Seat 5: $38.85 Seat 6: $10.15 Seat 8: $47.65 3rd Street - (0.70 SB) Seat 1: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls Hero: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls Seat 3: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___folds Seat 5: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Vil 6: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls 4th Street - (3.70 SB) Seat 1: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks Hero: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks Seat 3: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks Seat 5: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___checks Vil 6: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___checks Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks 5th Street - (1.85 BB) Seat 1: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___folds Hero: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___raises Seat 3: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets___folds Seat 5: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___folds Vil 6: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls___calls Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls___calls 6th Street - (8.85 BB) Hero: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls Vil 6: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___bets River - (11.85 BB) Hero: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls___calls Vil 6: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___raises $1.55 to $3.55 and is all-in Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] xx___bets___calls Total pot: (17.18 BB) |

Re: First Post
I fold 3rd, but then I suck. Seriously you have unsuited high bags in a very multiway pot. Even if you hit a pair chances are you'll still be behind to a 2 pair. Given the anemic pot on 5th I will even go so far as to advocate a fold, although I'm probably being results oriented :-\ DON'T POST RESULTS!

Re: First Post
At 1/2 A J 10 with the ace up has little value.
As played I muck 6th when you are looking at two sets at least. |

Re: First Post
I'd fold 3rd too especially with 3 limpers in front. Too many gaps in your hand. Without the limpers it might be a good place to steal.

Re: First Post
I've little to none experience with 7 Card Stud but I just read a book about it and hence I have opinions about your play in this hand.
3rd street: If you want to play your three very live high cards you should raise trying to knock some opponents out. 5th street: Raising with your straight against QQ, 88 and 66 is of course the right play. 6th street: Calling against 666 and 88 is OK. 7th street: Here you could think about saving the last bet. Calling the 666 is OK but villain's raise means that he can beat far more than that. You can at best beat one of these guys. |

Re: First Post
I'd raise third and bet fourth and then take stock. Is that bad? Can you really fold an ace door at $1/2 agaisnt these door cards in LP? What about the metagame?

Re: First Post
Yes. Too many players limped in for a raise on 3rd to be correct IMO. Just call 3rd and play well from there.

Re: First Post
Thanks.
For Bremen (and everybody for that matter) regarding "don't post results" - I know. I had been through a day's work at my regular job, 1 hour of homework, our weekly home game, and then four more hours of homework before I tried posting. I was tired, very tired. The hand had been played two nights earlier so tired does not factor into the play. I had already posted when I realized just what the little check boxes on the converter really did. I tried changing it, then went to bed anticipating your reminders. I'll be more careful in the future. David |

[/ QUOTE ] If you are late to act after 4 or 5 limpers, its right to smooth call. If you raise, you are making it correct for people with 3 flushes and 3 straights to play later because you have inflated the pot. Against 4 or 5 players you are not the favorite. |
