Default Re: Call with straight draw?

you could raise as a bluff with your 3 flush showing but i think that is dependent on your image and your opponents play, but i would at least call and if you catch a fourth spade you can bluff and probably win. but he may very well have only a pair of twos (due to the dead 2 and 5) so i would probably go to the river and maybe even call a bet with one pair on the end.

Not betting 4th is a big mistake. You have TONS of equity here with you OESD, plus a scary board and overcards (if somewhat dead ones) to the players behind you.

On 5th, with the pot this tiny and apparently no read on the guy, I don't know what I'd do.

Oh yeah, it would be good if you could put 'Stud Hi' somewhere in your post titles.

It's a stud board... It's in bold at the top of the page, and I'm pretty sure you don't want high straights in razz or stud 8 =P

I probably wouldn't have played this hand to being with, but I am pretty tight and have a bias against straight draws (and two of your pair outs are dead).

If you are going to play it, I think betting on 4th is best.

Bet 4th. Raise 5th.

What? Two people limped ahead of him, and all of his straight outs are live. Folding 3rd is a big mistake, especially at .25/.5
