Unimproved hidden aces in possible steal situation before my vacation
First off, I'd like to get out of the way that I'll be gone for just over a week. More importantly, tomorrow (Friday) night I'll be in the DC area, good chance I'll be hanging out at The Big Hunt, a bar near that one circle place. Dupont? Something. If any of the multitude of DC area stud players wants to get a beer, send me a PM.
On to the hand: Seat 2 is a relative unknown, doesn't seem too donkish. Bring-in player is good overall, but (like me?) tends to pay off a bit too much. Would anyone just call on 3rd? Would anyone bet the river? 7 Card Stud High ($20/$40), Ante $2, Bring-In $5 (hand converter) 3rd Street - (0.40 SB) Seat 2: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___completes___calls Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___raises Seat 4: xx xx 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___brings-in___folds Seat 7: xx xx 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___folds 4th Street - (4.65 SB) Seat 2: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets 5th Street - (3.33 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___checks___calls Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___bets 6th Street - (5.33 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___calls River - (7.33 BB) Seat 2: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] xx___checks Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___checks Total pot: (7.33 BB)

Re: Unimproved hidden aces in possible steal situation before my vacation
I like your raise on 3rd to clear the field.
Since your opponent "tends to pay off a bit too much" means betting the river is a mistake. He wont fold jacks up so there is no value in a bet.

Re: Unimproved hidden aces in possible steal situation before my vacation
The bring-in, who folded on 3rd, is the guy who pays off too much. That said, I wouldn't necessarily be betting the river to try to get ANYONE to fold jacks up. When he checks, it greatly increases the chance he has only 1 pair. Or he's going to checkraise [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

Re: Unimproved hidden aces in possible steal situation before my vacation
3rd street is an easy raise...I would just check behind on the river. My guess is this guy prob started with two nines or a smaller pair in the hole. Your play makes it seem like a pocket pair is a good possibility for you. So he may check two pair here fearing you made aces or kings up or whatever. His calls on 4th and 5th with a ragged board imply he started with a pair - a 3 flush prob gives up on 5th (same with just big cards in the hole).
