I hated this hand. please help me out
 

only read on villain is that a bet on fifth almost certainly means he has a made low

comments on all streets. I hated this hand and I'm curious to see how everyone else would have played it since I think I played it very poorly

If you want responses, use the converter to make your post readable. It's available in the FAQ.

I didn't see one for absolute poker... is there one?

Re: I hated this hand. please help me out
 

I don't know, I assumed it worked for all of them. But if it doesn't, it might be better for you to write it out using the suits, etc., rather than just pasting it. I know this takes more time, but people who respond will take the time to help you also. This is pretty tough to read (for me at least).

k... I wrote it out using the suits... hopefully that will help. thanks in advance

Re: I hated this hand. please help me out
 

I fold fourth. It sucks since your hand was so pretty, but there is no reason to continue here.

If I continue on fourth, I only call fifth. I don't think you have an equity edge here, though you may. If you do, I think jamming is fine, but I don't have a good intuition on equity. Obvioulsy you are seeing theriver here.

7th, meh. Not sure there getting ~4:1 on your call (assuming villain has a low). OTOH, if villain has no low, you are almost certainly getting scooped here.

Re: I hated this hand. please help me out
 

I fold 4th...you caught bad, he caught good and your str8 cards are deadish.

Jeff

Re: I hated this hand. please help me out
 

okay... since I made the mistake of calling fourth, what are your thoughts on 5th 6th and 7th?

Re: I hated this hand. please help me out
 

I like 5th and 6th. On the river, I doubt I call b/c I think you are losing both ways much of the time, but if you think he has a low only it's close. If he doesn't have a low, you get scooped. And he could easily have a low and have hit a bigger pair.
