Were fives totally live? Diamonds live? Potential straight cards he could have limped with live?

[/ QUOTE ]

I have all the dead cards listed in the hand. We were only 5-handed.

Did he bet the full $800 or $400 on 4th street?

[/ QUOTE ]

Opps, I did forget this, he did make it the full $800, sorry.

[ QUOTE ]
Is he weak passive always or laggy bad?

[/ QUOTE ]

He's mostly weak passive. Playing way to many hands and calling with most of them.

Joe, I agree with the consensus to raise 5th.

Quite interesting how 6th street turned out. You absolutely cannot fold there.

What if he had bet the river?

[Andy B]

Let me be the first to say that you should have raised fifth.

I do like the river bet.

I think I have to fold given how my board developed.

[FishySayBANG!]

Razz and interesting shouldn't be in the same sentence. The Razz game was dead, as most fishy Razz games are. It's too easy for them to play mechanically. There was a few Stud8 hands, one including a pot of around $38k where I chopped with the low, 4 out of 5 to the river. I wrote some stuff down so I'll likely post it in the future.

the river is a ftop error. you should check. 555 should check everything there, boat, quads, just trips, and raise with the first two hoping you made your flush. there would be no other way to play a boat or quads on the river.

I've been out of town but I want to add another "Raise 5th!" responses. Even against a good player who made perfect reads I would raise 5th, so don't worry about giving away your hand in this case.
