$10/$20 Stud 8 or Better. A couple hands.

[dsaxton]

Seat 7 is weird and seems pretty fishy, as you can tell by his limp on 3rd. No real read on anyone else.

I checked 4th to represent a bricked 3 card low since I was fairly sure one of the low draws would bet my hand for me and this way I wouldn't reveal my hand. When it came back to me, I just decided to start jamming since it seemed like no one wanted to fold. I opted to play it cautiously from 6th street on, since it was almost certain there was a low hand out, and Seat 3 or Seat 6 could have me beat for high. Comments on all streets?

Seat 3 is a mediocre tagg. Seat 6 is unknown. I just called the check-raise on 5th to see if I could get Seat 3 to come along since I couldn't make anymore money if I was heads-up against Seat 6. Once I realized he wasn't folding, I decided to start jamming. Should I have reraised 5th anyways and hoped to sandwich Seat 3?

Most of this looks good to me. Lotta action in this game. Does anybody ever fold???

[Andy B]

One hand per post unless one hand somehow sets up the other.

I don't think I've ever seen six to fourth street in a $10/20 stud/8 game.

I also like to mimic a busted low when I have a small roll-up and catch a banana on fourth or fifth. When you have two people check and call two bets cold, however, you might as well raise yourself.

I don't think it's all that likely that you're beaten on sixth. I might just call, assuming that one of the low hands would raise. Really, I think you should raise yourself, because I don't think either of the low hands is folding.

I think just calling the river is best. Not much value in raising.

Second hand: I think you're more likely to extract value from the third man if you jam fifth than you are by raising the river. If he's on clubs, he'll probably call a cap. Only one way to find out.

First hand looks fine although I'd prob raised sixth street.

Second hand is an easy third street fold IMO, you have a one way razz hand and there is already a low card that limped. Rest of the hand looks fine

[getfunky]

it's a nice cr on 4th, because although you reveal you're going high, it's unclear what you have in the hole .. it could be 2 small diamonds, aa or 66. If you catch running babies you still might be able to scare away some weak low draws on 6th.
