Default Re: Stud8 - (AA)4 , did I put in the appropriate amount of action here?

You should really just call the raise on 4th. You are giving up a lot of deception value if you will only do this with buried aces or trips on 4th. Against a razz hand you only have 57% equity, and you are turning your hand face up with the extra action. I would wait until 5th to raise if he catches bad.

I have a question about the completion on 3rd. Why not just call and invite the Q or T to maybe limp in or raise and take a shot at a second best hand? Also I guess one of my leaks is that I discount the possibility of the bring in having a hand.

[/ QUOTE ]I don't limp any hand here. But if you do, you should definitely limp (AA)4 as well.

In hero's spot, I raise third with a lot of hands. I figure that if I raise with crap often enough, I ought to raise when I actually have a hand as well.
