Pocket Aces bringing-in
Anyone play this differently?
Also, at what point do we think seat four is rolled? Looking back at the hand, I think going for the overcall on the river is probably best - he's unlikely to three-bet, but there's a good chance he had a better boat. Any thoughts? 7 Card Stud High ($5/$10), Ante $0.50, Bring-In $2 (converter) 3rd Street - (0.70 SB) Seat 1: xx xx 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___folds Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___brings-in___raises Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___calls___calls Seat 5: xx xx T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___folds Seat 6: xx xx K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___folds Seat 7: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___completes___folds Seat 8: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___raises___calls 4th Street - (10.70 SB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets___calls Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___raises Seat 8: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks___calls 5th Street - (8.35 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets___calls Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___raises Seat 8: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___checks___calls 6th Street - (14.35 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks___calls Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___bets Seat 8: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls River - (17.35 BB) Hero: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___checks___raises Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] xx___bets___calls Seat 8: xx xx Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] xx___folds Total pot: (21.35 BB) |

Re: Pocket Aces bringing-in
I think seat 4 is betting with either trip J's or 4's or 2 pair on forth. As the hand goes on it looks more like trips.
I still probably call this the whole way depending on reads. Raise on the river looks good. |

Re: Pocket Aces bringing-in
I’d be concerned on 3rd. With all those dead hearts, rolled 4s is the only hand he should be sticking around with, after all.
On 4th, he confirms that suspicion. You can’t really fold though, getting over 16:1 and good implied odds. If you hadn’t improved on 5th, you could have made a good laydown. Even with aces up, check-folding is probably not a bad idea, especially since you only have two clean outs. I can’t fault you for calling this down, but I think you shouldn’t bet out on 5th. Seat 4 isn’t going anywhere and you can’t exactly value bet, can you. Check-raising the river is good. |

If he's careful enough to limp JJ because there is a Q and K behind him he'd fold 3rd. The ONLY hand a normal opponent can have there is rolled 4. If you've played more than 15 hands with this guy and he hasn't made himself known to be a total baffoon you have to put him on trips (probably at 3rd st)(and at the very worst on 4th). |

Re: Pocket Aces bringing-in
To instantly say he must be rolled up is a pretty poor statement. I moved up to 5/10 on Party recently and have found the standard to be appalling. Has anyone considered the fact that this guy might have the other buried aces, or something like kings? It wouldnt be too unusual for him to play them that way. You have not rereraised third with just a pair of deuces so have to have something bigger in the hole in his eyes, and if he has the aces.
You say a good player would not stick around without being rolled up, but look at the poor hitchhiker, who has stayed in despite you showing two pair and getting raised. Bad players exist at 5/10, a lot of them. I have known players to three bet 3rd fourth and fifth on three/four flushes before at 5/10. Also it isnt possible to go for the overcall on the river, because you check, your opponent bets, and the third player folds. I simply dont see how you can get an overcall. Really if he was rolled he has not paired his board, so your house is most likely best, get as many bets in as you can. I take it he paired the river and beat you though. |

Re: Pocket Aces bringing-in
If this guy can bet 6th withiut a set he's a big-time looney tune.

Re: Pocket Aces bringing-in
The bet on sixth obviously meant trips. I have odds to call if he turned his cards over showing trip 4s. The real question is when you give him credit for trips.
