stud hi tournament heads up
 

Is this to reckless or should I keep pressure on him? Again, I'm against Andy B if ya didn't see that last post. This is 3 or 4 hands after Andy's big bluff, I had a pair of kings in there somwhere to get to a managable stack.

I really want to know what he had, I think AK had a chance of winning here

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I think you played fine. Given what you've seen earlier you can't give him credit for the king.

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I don't know about that reraise on 5th.I think you're being overly influenced by the earlier hand.
Well,you got him back.You are 2 wild & crazy guys.

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I think if I don't reraise fifth I'm pretty much giving up the hand. If I have kings or some other decent pair in this spot I'm reraising, if I don't raise I think I have to fold since he will keep the pressure on me the rest of the hand knowing I was just bluffing a missed a step on fifth giving away my hand.

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I think you're right that you have to re-raise or fold,& I'm sure that your judgement about which to do is better than mine.I probably would have caved in(no cajones).I guess this is why I'm not winning any stud tournaments.

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I got it right this time. I usually have to do alot of stabbing in the dark when I have to play heads up though.

Hey, me too.

I remembered this hand, but couldn't remember what all I had, although I was sure it wasn't much. I wasn't folding many pairs, I'll tell you that much. I checked the hand history, and I had Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] down and blanked off on the river. Ace-high was way good.

Yea, I figured that and then figured out that the bet on 7th was probably pretty bad.

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

never mind, the river bet was probably necessary since it would be tough to call if you bet after I check. I forgot I was first to act...

Re: stud hi tournament heads up
 

I don't think betting the river was necessarily bad. If you check and I bet, are you going to look me up with Ace-high?
