Stud 8 hand
I suck, but I still won a big pot. 4th street I continued because the pot was huge even though it was possible I probably had the second best low draw, possibly the third if no one paired. Given that I'm continuing I should have raised, no? As soon as I called I questioned it.
Fifth street I was looking to check raise the Kings looking at all those bricks. There was no made low possible and no strong draws showing I thought he would bet. Is this wise? If all else fails catch perfect on 6th and 7th. 7 Card Stud High-Low ($0.50/$1), Ante $0.10, Bring-In $0.15 (converter) 3rd Street - (1.20 SB) Seat 2: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls___calls___calls Seat 3: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___folds Seat 4: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___completes___raises Hero: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___raises___calls Seat 7: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___brings-in___calls___calls Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls___calls___calls 4th Street - (16.20 SB) Seat 2: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls Seat 4: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets Hero: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Seat 7: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls 5th Street - (10.60 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks Seat 4: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___checks Hero: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___checks Seat 7: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks 6th Street - (10.60 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___bets___calls Seat 4: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls___calls Hero: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___raises Seat 7: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks___folds Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks___calls River - (18.60 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] xx___calls Seat 4: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] xx___calls Hero: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___bets Seat 8: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] xx___folds Total pot: (21.60 BB - $21.60) |

Re: Stud 8 hand
I'd just call the completion on third. I'd prefer multi-way action, and this isn't quite a premium hand. Two key cards for your hand are out, after all.
On fourth, I don't think you can do anything but call. I think fifth is worth a bet. The problem with your check-raise plan is that a King died and this poor bastard is looking at a dead-ass hand and four people who don't seem to be folding. He would be foolish not to take the free card in my opinion. People don't always see things my way, so he might bet for you, but I wouldn't count on it. I actually don't mind taking a free card with your hand, but I'd bet and hope someone folded myself. Sixth and seventh play themselves. You didn't hit quite perfect on seventh. There's still a Trey left in the deck. You have to play the hand you're dealt though. Nice hand. |

[/ QUOTE ] In fact, as I see things, the villain with the presumed split kings should have taken a free card. Unimproved brick pairs are in trouble when up against two low draws on fourth street; against three low draws check-folding might be a mistake, but not a huge one. I would bet on fifth only if I thought someone would fold. I don't see anyone about to fold in this spot. |
