Chased, caught, cool?
Relatively new to Stud. I enjoy the game and I find the edges more pronounced than in Hold 'Em. Found myself at a higher limit than I usually played but wanted the challenge and the tables I wanted to play were empty.
This is a hand that I chased. I did catch, but I still don't know if it was the right thing to do and I want to not get into bad habits.

The reason that I shouldn't have chased: 1) Didn't have any out other than the flush draw. 2) (Insert your response here) |
