Re: stud 8: low hand, lots of action
[ QUOTE ]
2461badugi, i have a hypothetical question for fourth where you want a raise. let's say you raise the Q4's bet and if the 23 makes it 3 bets [/ QUOTE ] Reread the action. 4Q bets, 33 calls, 32 folds and then it's on us. If we were acting in front of the 23 it's not a clear raise. If he calls, it's a marginal raise. But since he's not in the hand anymore at all, it's criminal not to raise. |

On the river, I was playing for half the pot and had a very weak low. I was afraid seat 8 might have a better low. That's also why I didn't jam when it got raised. [/ QUOTE ] Are you sure you posted the right hand? The only other person that appears to have been going low is the guy that folded on fourth. |

Re: stud 8: low hand, lots of action
I was just taking some of my tournament winnings and donating in the 30/60 game. I don't do badly in stud/8 because other people play it badly. This hand was an interesting lesson.
Guess I didn't push the hand more partly because I had an 8 low, and partly because I didn't want to knock high hands out. |

Re: stud 8: low hand, lots of action
I like to see 4th a lot but if I am reading this right after I limp an 8 completes, a four re-raises, and a 3 calls then I am throwing my hand away.
I would have bet 4th as it seems that the 32 is scared of something. Definitly raise 5th...you are free-rollin bro! 6th is cool Given that the guy with the pair of threes has been betting against your board it seems as though he probably has a high hand. I think your low is good enough to put more action in on the river. |

Re: stud 8: low hand, lots of action
I thought of folding 3rd, but I think that is one street where I made the right read.
