Re: stud high
There is a chance that he could be raising eith 2 pairs+a four-flush or some similar hand.
Suppose,in a simplified example,you called his hand down when you didn't hit,& when you did fill up & check-raised he called you down.
If your hand were never good without filling up,you would lose a little less than 1 bet per hand. But if your hand were good 1 time out of 10 without improving,you would be a slight winner.
On average,the EV is so close to zero that I would rather see his hand than invite other players in the game to bluff me out in the future by throwing the hand away.
