I don't think I would be too worried about seat 1, looks like he has something like a pair and a straight draw and is just going to try and get to the river.
You can be pretty certain, i think, that seat 5 has at least kings or aces and might have hit two pair along the way, his cards are very dead but its hard to put him on anything else.

I think I do play it pretty much the same as you did though, I might put another raise in on 5th and try and knock out seat 1 and punish seat 5 if he's behind in the hand.

yeah i agree about the 5th street now. i'm just starting in stud and wanted to make sure i'm not doing anything too stupid.

[preiserone]

well welcome to the stud forum. you seem to be doin alright from what you've posted. keep them comin.

thanks, i'll try, it's a nice change from the usual hold 'em.

[benwood]

Jeez,I hate hands like this.You have to just suck along with a feeling of impending doom.I think I would have called it down,too & then hated myself.

[Andy B]

I think I play it the same. I don't really enjoy calling off my money like this, but I don't really see any point at which you can get away from this one.
