Default Re: 10-20 Stud8 Hand

with no read and a small pot I think it's a fold...

however, if you can rule out him having two pair it is a definite raise because you're about even money with him if he has a hand like a238a. However, two pair puts you in pretty bad shape.


Suppose we did raise: you're probably only actually going to have to put in 3 bets total 2 on fifth, 1 on sixth, and a free check on seventh if you don't improve. and if you do improve, you'll gain a bet or so most likely on the river. Also, there is a slight chance he'll fold to the raise on 5th or the bet on 6th (especially if you catch good and he catches bad (thinking you have straight or are freerolling for high on him). I don't think that is enough to justify it. so, with no read, and a tiny pot, I fold
