Default Re: Weak 4th street check?

Slow playing in stud is gengeraly not the optimal way to play the game. It is too easy for the underdog to catch up in stud. A pair of jacks is not best suited for multiplay unlike a flush draw. My guess is that you are raising most of your flush draws and limping with your high pairs, and if that is the case, you need to look into the mirror and see things in reverse. pairs - shorthanded, draws - multiway.

The outcome of this hand is of no relevance. It is actually detrimental, I think, as it reinforces a losing strategy.

This hand was not played wisely. It's not about winning the biggest pots. It's about winning the most bets over a session. And playing this way will take away many of your winning bets.
