$10/20 stud high fiasco
 

This was on Party, but seat 1 is someone I recognize as a half-decent regular on Stars. The other guy is unknown to me.

Does his name start with an "h"? If so, you should try to put him on tilt [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Do you think I have the best hand? Do you think I am getting anyone to fold?

Re: $10/20 stud high fiasco
 

i don't really know how to feel about this hand. seat 1 seems to have jacks up at worst or a straight with the case Q starting QJJ or something. if seat 1 doesn't have the case Q then i think seat 3 started with it (or burried kings). i don't think seat 3 can (or should) call the river with just one pair and that poses problems for your hand. i'd probably call but i don't know if i'd feel good about it.

Re: $10/20 stud high fiasco
 

Tough spot here, my guess is that seat 1 has J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Kx in the hole, or at least J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Seems like seat 3 doesn't have KK or AA in the hole (if he did, played it weakly). I think seat 3's most likely hand is some sort of straight draw with a Q, that made two pair on the river. I'm tempted to say get out on 6th, because you're probably drawing to one of the 3 aces in the deck, and that might not be good in seat 1 gets a flush or seat 3 gets a straight.

Andy- this is a tough but correct fold on 3rd.

Why?

Re: $10/20 stud high fiasco
 

Blumpkin:Nice fold on 3rd.I didn't even consider it.When seat 3 raises seat 1's completion,he represents a hand better than J's.He may not have it all the time(3 flush, etc),butyour equity against the 2 of them is not great,& you will never be able to bet your hand with confidence.giving you reverse implied odds.

Re: $10/20 stud high fiasco
 

ante is cheap. fold on third unless they play way too loose.

4th maybe check. they both caught good.

5th defintely check. and you could get away from the hand if you had checked on 4th. if someone bets.

since you got to 6th. its all player dependent on what to do here. even a raise to knock out kings up from the first player and hope the other guy has smaller two pair. of course you would look like a fool when they show a flush and a straight. but it may be the best play.
