Default 30/60 High, calling with str8 to get overcalls

Here is an interesting hand I played against 2 good players where I thought I'd make more money by keeping in the 3rd player (felt like I was playing hi/low with this play). Maybe I should have raised somewhere along the line to protect against getting drawn out by a full house or maybe the guy with the open Js would have called a double raise on either 5th or 6th and I cost myself $120 by not raising?

7 Card Stud High ($30/$60), Ante $5, Bring-In $10 (converter)

I think I would reraise sixth, if they both have trips or two pair, I'd imagine your equity goes up quite a bit by getting one to fold. If he calls anyway, thats good as well.

Me too. I like your range of starting hands. I wish I was good enough on later streets to make these playable!

I definitely reraise 5th. Punish two pair and trips and make them pay dearly to draw out. Game Friday?

I can see the call on 5th

Once you hit the 3rd heart on 6th I think you should raise.

-You'll come off like you are trying to raise on a 4 flush
-By then the pot is big enough that if you don't mind not letting a 2 - pair draw

id raise 6th, keep em both calling on 5th, and when seat 1 bets again on 6th raise there ... you have 2 of his 4 (possibly 6) outs to a full house here, and seat 8 is looking to see a cheap 7th to fill up, and definetly isn't calling 7th with his weaker two pair

Do you mean reraise 5th or raise 6th? I think that my equity might actually go down if they both have 2 pair and my raise gets one of them to fold, especially given that their pair cards are dead...I'll check it out on twodimes.net to see.

What are the range of hands, and how likely they are, you (or anyone) put the two opponents on on 5th and 6th? Why? What does it look like I have to my opponents? Why? What if the open Js just has a busted 3 flush with the Js, I want him in, right?
