I played this hand last night in a full 50/100 stud high game at Bellagio. The structure is $10 BI, $15 ante. All players except for the bring-in are tight, passive, 70-year-old's. The bring-in is...

You also brought up a valid point about being behind on fifth if called. I actually would be worried in a tough game, perhaps the shorthanded 30-60 you play in on stars, but in this game...

My thoughts

I basically agree with the analysis that Mike gave, so this will be short. Whenever I see someone open limp short handed with the high card up I feel like the player is whispering in my ear: "I...

My thoughts and results

On third st. I thought there was a good chance that I had the best hand (the 3 seat would open raise with pretty much any pair, or 3 boardwalk cards), but I choose not to reraise because of seat 5's...

Yeah, it was painful being ahead the entire way and then losing 3 allins in a row at the very end. I didn't get a call, probably because my location says Jordan. I bet they always root for the...

Re: Random Razz question

good question...the lack of straights and flushes mattering makes it a lot less complex than most game.

3rd st. reraise

One quick note about both frappe's and sara's anaylses. You both mentioned that if I played the hand, I should have reraised on third to get heads up. I would definitely have done this if there...

There is a great chance you have the best hand, your cards are live and hidden, the Ace is dead and you are probably going have position for the rest of the hand. Even if you have slightly negative...

30/60 Stud hi hand

Any thoughts? All players are good semi-loose, tricky and very agressive. No one knows the 5 seat well (he is the weakest), but the other 3 of us have played thousands of hands together.
