Default Re: $1/$2 Stud High - Stubborn straight draw

By sixth street, you've seen 18 cards. Eight of the remaining 34 cards will give you a straight. That's a little more than 3:1 against. So if you were sure your straight would be good if you hit it, you could call a cap. Of course, if it capped, it's extremely unlikely that your straight will be good. It probably won't be more than one or two bets on sixth, so you can probably call. Sure, you can easily make your straight and lose, but the pot is pretty big.
