This was in the early stages of a 10+1 tourney on Party. I hardly ever play stud so I'm probably pretty terrible, but I decided to play it for fun. The table was playing very loose and mostly passive.

Stakes are currently 10/20 with 5 ante and 10 bring-in.


Seat 1: A /images/graemlins/club.gif _____Calls
Seat 2: K /images/graemlins/diamond.gif _____Folds
Seat 3: 2 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif Brings-In
Seat 4: A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif _____Calls
Seat 5: 9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif _____Calls
Seat 6: 4 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif _____Folds
Seat 7: A /images/graemlins/heart.gif _____Calls
Hero: (J /images/graemlins/club.gif 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif) 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif Calls

Calling here good/bad?

Hero: (J /images/graemlins/club.gif 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif) 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif I raise

Good?

Basically I'm thinking there's a very good chance I have the best hand considering all the A's are out and the next highest card out is Seat 1's J. Also, I'm in the perfect spot to put pressure on everyone else to fold.

I like it. Make everyone behind you cold call 2 if they want to fish. In addition, a 3 bet is probably only going to come from a true monster, which lets you fold easily.

I like it! You're a natural.
