Re: $1/$2 Stud High - Stubborn straight draw
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Maybe this raise was goofy, but I thought I was being bullied and wanted to see how serious these guys were. I probably would have folded to a re-raise. [/ QUOTE ] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] What part – the raise, the reason for the raise, or the statement that I would probably fold to a re-raise. When benwood said I’d have to call a 3-bet I went back and looked at fifth. The pot is way too big to fold. But what if I am jammed again? How much heat do I take with this draw? |

Re: $1/$2 Stud High - Stubborn straight draw
By sixth street, you've seen 18 cards. Eight of the remaining 34 cards will give you a straight. That's a little more than 3:1 against. So if you were sure your straight would be good if you hit it, you could call a cap. Of course, if it capped, it's extremely unlikely that your straight will be good. It probably won't be more than one or two bets on sixth, so you can probably call. Sure, you can easily make your straight and lose, but the pot is pretty big.
