Hi/Lo Aces Up on Board, Full Boat in Hole... 7 St. Decision

NewUser2006 · #1 08-13-2006, 02:41 AM

Quick question.

I just had a hand where we got to 7th street after dragging 3 others into the hand for 4 bets on 6th against someone who had an obvious made low (other two called 2 bets at a time).

I was showing A K A K and had an ace in the hole.

Both of the other two guys were both showing two raggedy lows on 6th but I think one of them was trying to spike trips.

So the question. I act first on 7th, and the guy with the low acts second. I am 90% sure that he's going to raise if I bet. Do I checkraise here or hope that they are just absolute [censored]?

I like leading out. The reason being that you won't be able to get 4 bets from everyone on 7th if you don't lead out. LOL Seriously, they've come that far, the odds of them calling 2 cold is quite high and you can pop it again when it gets to you. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You're not allowed to cap if you lead out?

The other guys called a cap on sixth. This either means that they are committed to a showdown, or they're drawing to something that they'll really like if they hit it. Most of the time, it won't matter what you do. The one scenario where it might is if they are drawing to a strong low but hit an Eight or maybe a Seven. There, they might call one bet, but might not call two.
