Stud High - River Play against two players
I can't put either of these players on a hand. Seat 2 has been calling my completions with a number of questionable hands. Given the action on 4th, I bet out 5th with the hope that seat 2 will raise seat 7 out of there/know how boned I am. Without the raise, I figure I'm not crushed by trips or anything here (slight concern I'm being slow rolled).
What's my river play when I hit two pair and both of these pesky guys have hung on until now... what about if I don't improve? 7 Card Stud High ($1/$2), Ante $0.20, Bring-In $0.25 (converter) 3rd Street - (1.20 SB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___completes Seat 2: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Seat 3: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___folds Seat 5: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___brings-in___folds Seat 7: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls___calls Seat 8: xx xx 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___folds 4th Street - (4.45 SB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets___raises___calls Seat 2: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___raises___raises Seat 7: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls___calls 5th Street - (8.23 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___bets Seat 2: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Seat 7: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls 6th Street - (11.23 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___bets Seat 2: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls Seat 7: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls River - (14.23 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___ Seat 2: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Seat 7: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Total pot: (14.23 BB - $28.45)

Re: Stud High - River Play against two players
You've been the aggressor thru out the hand, so keep driving the bus....BET
Seat 2's raises on 4th, then go into call down mode, don't make a lot of sense. Alot of times at this level, they will pull a stunt like this when they hit a pair w/a draw of some kind or just an outright bluff. Seat 7 appears to have 1 gear...call. I wouldn't be surprised if he called you all the way down with split 6's. You're probably good unless one of them lucked into trips or a small straight.

Re: Stud High - River Play against two players
This is true. But you are forgetting 2 factors . . 1) what is the chance that they call you with something other than the hand they are drawing to- 2 small pair , one pair, etc and you get paid off. 2) Seat 2 likely isn't drawing given the 4th street action, 2 pair seems much more likely. 3) the chance that you get called in both spots by worse hands, which happens a decent amount at this level

Re: Stud High - River Play against two players
1.) Why are you playing $1-$2, I thought you normally played higher?
2.) Seat 7 is a moron. 3.) If 4th street did not exist in this hand, I would advocate a bet/fold on the river as you will likely be called by worse hands given the action and only raised by hands that have you completely crushed. However, given your 4th street action, you could hvae easily convinced seat 2 that you are beating the crap out of him. He might have just simmered with trips. Given that this small, I still think bet/fold is the way to go.

Re: Stud High - River Play against two players
They will call with a lot more hands you beat if you bet than they will bet if you check, so bet. You also are unlikely to get raised since it looks like you could have a flush going down as well.
