Simple low limit hand, Split Kings (UB .25/.50)
Just had some basic ?'s on what is probably a simple hand. Trying to ramp up on stud, still feel a little lost on some fundamentals.
No great reads because I have only been at the table a short time and don't know anyone. Limited knowledge of villian is he is typical for these stakes. Hasn't shown much agression yet. Wondering about 4th and 5th specifically. Is it weak to check this behind on 5th after he call's my double raise on 4th? Should I be betting these Kings like a winner until I face resitance? 7 Card Stud High ($0.25/$0.50), Ante $0.10, Bring-In $0.15 (converter) Seat 0: $13.20 Seat 1: $9.20 Seat 2: $21.95 Seat 3: $6.85 Seat 4: $23.50 Hero: $30.85 3rd Street Seat 0: xx xx 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___folds Seat 1: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Seat 2: xx xx 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___brings in___folds Seat 3: xx xx 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___folds Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___calls___calls Hero: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___raises 4th Street Seat 1: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___folds Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]___bets___calls Hero: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]___double-raises 5th Street Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks Hero: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___checks 6th Street Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]___calls Hero: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___bets River Seat 4: xx xx 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] xx Hero: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]___ Standard bet here assuming he'll check behind with to many weaker two-pair hands? |

I don’t see any reason to check behind on fifth. If he missed a CR he had a chance to pop you on sixth and didn’t take it. Who knows, he may have forgotten that you completed and now thinks you’re on a flush/straight draw. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Yeah, I’d bet the river. I’ve played a little Stud on this site and it has the worst players of the sites I play. |

Re: Simple low limit hand, Split Kings (UB .25/.50)
unless you think there is a chance he will fold 5th (which there isn't in this case) the check is just fine since your hand didn't improve.
bet the river. |

Even though your hand did not improve, it probably didn't need to. This is extremely low-limit stud. You must bet on 5th.

Re: Simple low limit hand, Split Kings (UB .25/.50)
Because this is $.25/.50?
I probably wouldn't let up unless the other guy gave me a reason to. |

Re: Simple low limit hand, Split Kings (UB .25/.50)
Cool, I thought I might have missed some value on 5th in the long run by not betting.
As a follow up if I had bet and got c/r'd on 5th do I turn into a calling station trying to hit King's up? Can I lay down unimproved on the river or is the pot too big to give them credit? Greenage, yeah UB has seemed really soft from my limited stud experience there. I don't even feel I am that great at stud, but feel I have a pretty big edge in the games I have played. Only problem is that there are very few games. Usually at most 1 game of 1/2 - 5/10 often 0 and then a slew of .25/.50 games. However it's the only site I can log into from work and play when I am bored like today [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: Simple low limit hand, Split Kings (UB .25/.50)
UB is very soft, don't touch my 3/6 game unless you tell me your name =).
No need for the double raise on 4th necessarily, bet 5th, etc. |
