Default Re: Stud high, trip aces.

I don't mind just calling the limp reraise...those are always suspicious

Given how you played 3rd street I think you need to put in a raise on 4th.

It won't make sense to let the K bet the hand the whole way. Because you are probably going to be checking to him the whole way....and you don't want to take a free card.

So because you're gonna be betting you should represent a hand that he might try to draw out on or might have beaten.

If he fold on a later street that isn't bad...he pot is getting pretty big heads up.

Check call from here on out.

hope you won or draw out.

It's 425, and given the way he's played it, it's a hell of a lot more likely than usual that he's rolled.

Hi,

What level is this? How passive/agressive is your opponent? Live or online?

How passive/agressive are you? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

4th) He could very well have K's and 3's. You didn't bet/raise on 4th so you dont know if he is afraid you spiked aces up.

5th) he could have K's with a 4 flush. A lot of people will cap here with this hand, as even if you have Q's up He's got a huge amount of pot equity given you only have 1 over card he believes. *BUT* only the MOST agressive players are capping here. Your run of the mill player isnt capping with Kings up. Its very likely he's rolled or spiked a 3/7 on you for baby trips.

6th) He makes an open pair. I'm afraid your going to have to grit your teeth and raise again. Calling is only an option if he's mildly passive. I.e. Would never cap on a semi bluff in a multiway pot or cap with out trips or better.

Against your typical stud player, he's full. I think calling is ok unless you fill.

Later,
MarkV.

Hmmmm... I'm thinking he will bet and 6th regardless...
Besides having a clear read on your opponent the question is, is raising tactically worse than calling on 6th.

I think a big 3 way draw is also an option to consider as is 4 of a kind....


If your way behind your saving money if your way ahead your extracting money. This is correct unless he has a 3 way draw to beat you than you should raise and charge him. On the other hand if he does have the 3 way and misses he may still bang it on the end so...

Call 6th; bet if he checks the river call if he bets or raises.

If you improve bet the cap

Shouldn't you be acting first on fourth and fifth street? I think that fearing a set is rational, and while I might raise against some opponents, against most I think you only have a call on sixth. This would be a good time to hit. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
