...that lasted only ten minutes (so perhaps thatīs why the result is so extreme?! /forums/images/icons/grin.gif )
Well, anyway, no free seat at $3/6 holdīem, so I give $10/20 stud ($2ante, $3bring-in) a try for five hands, because after that five hands I got called up for my holdīem game. Two hands I got involved in:
1) [JJ]A rainbow. Three limp to me, the second one showing a queen, but he was to the left of the bring-in so I guess he would have raised with a queen. I think about just calling along what with three already in the pot, but I remember how one or two players folded to a complete after having already paid the bring-in, so I complete myself, hoping that this folding stuff will happen again. Opponent on my left calls, the other three call too. Oops, methinks I should have just called.
4th: [JJ]As2s (limper No3 gets an ace, other boards as non-threatening as before). I bet and get called by everyone (perhaps the bring-in folds)
5th: [JJ]As2s8d. (now the player with the queen gets an ace and is first to act). Checked to me, my bet gets called in three spots.
6th: [JJ]As2s8d5c. (the player on my left pairs sevens, seven isnīt door-card; player on my right pairs sixes which ainīt door-card either). Checked to me, I check too.
7th: I donīt get any help and it gets checked through.
Comments (especially on 3rd street)?
2) [8d3c]Ad. (I just got called up for $3/6. The low card is to my immediate right, and the aces and diamonds are completely live. There is a K and a Q or J showing after me.) The low card brings it in for $3, I complete. Comments?
This, in fact, is as far as I got, because I *saw* how the player with the K was thinking, and I just got the very strong feeling that he was thinking about whether to raise or just call (donīt ask me why Iīm so sure, I just saw something in his face, surprise perhaps?), so I was very sure I was up against kings when he called; another player called too.
4th: [8d3c]Ad5h. I check, KcJc bets, other player calls, I fold saying "canīt beat kings".
5th: KcJc gets the Ks, bets, other player folds. KJK shows KJ for a full-house.
