Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
I was in there trying to mix it up since all the Tens are dead, so there is really only 1 viable overcard. Call this down? Be more aggressive? Fold? No read on the players at the time (seat 3 turned out to be a bit of a wild one, but that doesn't matter here).

Re: Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
Well, you could always hope to catch another 10 & it would be a misdeal...[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] seriously though, I think you got rivered by seat 1. He hasn't showed any aggression whatsoever & now he bets. It's either a bluff or he made something. I'd probably just call down. It's only 1 more bet.
I wouldn't be concerned with seat 3. He has slowed down already. Probably raised 3rd with a three flush or small pair. If you wanted to be more aggressive, I could see check/raising 4th...maybe. |

Re: Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
As played, fold 5th. Calling down on 7th with 6s is stupid with seat 3 still to act. If you must play, then raise.
Should have been more aggresive on 3rd and 4th, but you had a tough position, so its hard to say because you needed seat 3 to cap 3rd. In the heat of battle, Ok, but fold 5th. |

Re: Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
I would have limped third myself. Why you would need to "mix it up" in a $1/2 game is beyond me. Anyway, I'm not crazy about fifth, but what the hell can these guys have? The river's a pretty easy fold. You think he's bluffing his dead board into two players? I also wouldn't think the guy behind you is folding. I seriously doubt that a bluff raise would work often enough to be worth trying.

[/ QUOTE ] Well the reasoning for 3rd was that if I'm going to play, might as well get it heads up...I thought there was a good chance of that given all the completely dead upcards left to act. 5th is certainly debatable and I was hovering over the fold button and then figured two pair is probably winning this pot if I can hit it, especially now that another K came out, so seat 3s chances of playing high bags and hitting a K on 4th is diminished. The river is probably a fold but then I started thinking it was one of those spots where he only has to be bluffing 1 out of 10 times and then didn't know what to do. |

Re: Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
I generally like a call on 3rd here but I dont hate the raise because of the dead 10s. Plus your pair is hidden and it is good to mix it up every now and then.
I usually fold this on 4th. Your 8 is now dead and a player has come alive. I definitely fold this on 5th. I would fold 7th as well. $1/$2 players will just not fold to a raise and I cant see you having the best hand here. |

Re: Stud Hi: Crappy Hand against 2 dead hands
It isn't one out of ten times. The guy behind you will sometimes call, and he'll have Sixes beaten every time he does call.

[/ QUOTE ] Well good thing I folded then [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Other guy folded too and he showed his rivered King....I probably should have stuck in a raise somewhere since both these guys were on air. |
