I'm just a beginner in Stud, but I think you played it perfectly.

stud high? ante/bring in?

in any case, I'd have to wonder why he didn't put in a few more raises, unless he put you on trip Qs

I play it the same way every time. I don't know why villan slowed down on 5th though - he should have tried to put in more raises with a hand like (KK)AA

mscags · #5 06-01-2005, 05:08 PM

sorry, it was H/L and I was playing Dealers Choice so there was a 1$ and 2$ blind

somapopper · #6 06-01-2005, 06:18 PM

to be clear, villans kings were in the hole, right?

God, what a nightmare hand. baring qs in the hole, he basically knows he's got you beat till the river. You're lucky you seemed to convince him you had those qs, or his brain just shut off, either way.

But yeah, I wouldn't ever slow down with this, the real question is if his agression continued (like it should have), at what point do you back off?

mscags · #7 06-01-2005, 06:46 PM

Yeah his Kings were in the hole, and I don't know when I back of but hopefully sooner than later.

I was wondering the same thing. I'd have lost a lot on that hand myself. Nothing you can do about it, in my opinion

come to think of it, from the way Hero has played the hand, he would more likely have trip queens than the two remaining aces. Villain's looking at open aces, and Hero is capping it right back at hime with open queens. Hero may raise with queens up, but he's not going to cap a 3bet and lead 5th with just queens up. Villain would be foolish to put Hero on anything else but trips.
