Default Re: stud/8: risk getting squeezed?

I agree that it’s a fold but I don’t think it’s that easy. Considering the limit and that Seat 6 is the bring-in, I don’t think he needs much to call Hero’s completion.

When Seat 6 raises Fifth, he may think he is the only low hand and he certainly has the only made low at that point.

On Sixth, Hero has a made low, but it’s kind of stinky (a smooth 6-7). [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would call single bets on Sixth and Seventh all day long, although this could be why I’m still in the micros. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Since I could be beat, Seat 6 could draw to a better low if I’m not, and having to call 2-bets cold w/o closing the action I suppose I fold this but would not like it.

The thing that gets me about this hand is that my action and board could be construed by Seat 6 as me going high. If he thinks he has the only low, there is no reason for him not to bet/raise any low hand.
