Default Re: Razz river: call or raise?

Rusty's analysis of 6th seems excellent to me. However, I would have folded on 4th. The pot isn't that big to take another of the top. Even though your opponent may have also paired.

4th is a loose call but Prax already knows that. If I was going to peel one off there I'd want a little better 3 card hand. Outs are still nice and live, though, and as of 4th st there are only 2 wheel cards outs missing (A and 4).

It's almost impossible to make guesses about whether the 4 paired villain. The chances are not high enough to make the peel based on that.

[/ QUOTE ]I'm wondering what you're wondering. I shouldn't play a 7 against an 8 in the door when everyone else folds? Or I shouldn't raise so the BI folds?

Rusty: I called because the hand was still pretty live, I felt comfortable playing it to a later street since his high card was up, it was a 3 (if I have it he might not get it) instead of a K. I check-called it because I was always a card behind until 6th when I thought, "Yeah! Now I can raisssssshhheeee-it." When I saw the 5, it sure looked like he could have me pipped. Rats. So I played it slow all the way, this was someone I played with regularly, and he wasn't some laggy newbie. I wondered if it was too nitty.

If it's someone you've played with a lot, it might help to describe what he's like. Also, it might be good to know what he probably thinks of you, if you have any idea.

I don't really care about 4th. I don't think it's the worlds greatest call, but certainly it's one I've made before and I don't think it's the worlds most awful call anyway. To me this question is about 6th/7th so that's what I answered. I just commented on 4th because someone asked about it.

I think I just call this river. His bet on 6th tells me he's either made or bluffing, so I don't see a whole lot of value in raising...
