Re: Stud Question bringing in with a concealed pocket pair
if someone can put you accurately on a pair in the hole you are toast as they get to play their hand almost perfectly.

Re: Stud Question bringing in with a concealed pocket pair
But if I hit the Jack, it is usually them that are toast now. No? I feel the power of having a premium concealed pair pays off in the long run completing with a bring in and worst comes to worst you more than likely get a free card on 4th and can ditch 5th if you don't improve no?
This is all assuming your concealed pair is higher than most of the door cards except maybe one or two. |

They're only going to put in a lot of action if they can beat a big pair, and if you play back they're only going to put in a lot of action if they can beat an improved big pair. And mostly you're going to be toasted by the fact that they simply can fold a lot of extra hands when you bring-in big. [ QUOTE ] I feel the power of having a premium concealed pair[ QUOTE ] It's not concealed if you bring-in big only with that sort of hand. And if you start doing that with bad hands you're screwed putting in a ton of action with bad hands. If you start bringing in big with all sorts of hands you're screwed when you bring-in small since it's an easy raise with 100% of the hands from steal position. Bringing in big really only is a good idea when there's exceptionally bad players in the game. I'm pretty sure everyone would be better off by eliminating the option completely and start doing "autopost bring-in" like blinds are autoposted in hold'em. |

Ray Zee makes a good point about giving away your hand.
