10/20 Stud8...just right?

[mscags]

Anyone play this differently? I'm just getting back into the swing of things so this hand is probably standard but I wanted to make sure.

Hey mike, I don't know jack squat about stud/8, but it seems the only thing your opponent could have started with here is a pair of queens. If that's the case, does his limping in here suck?

Beer.

I think it does with those overcards behind him.

I think so.

His play on sixth is super confusing, though. Perhaps he's made two pair and put you on air since you were the bring-in.

yes, this is a weak play imo .. if you can't raise with your high hand, you shouldn't be playing it from early position. beer, in stud8 it's essential to start with the best high hand, so it's a clear fold. the villian was impatient and decided to test the waters and fold to a raise - now he trapped himself by having to play guessing games about the strength of the bi's starting hand, which was fortunately for our friend, super strong.

This hand might just be the most standard hand I've ever seen posted on these forums. I read it a few times, like, "where is the remotely interesting street". [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Post a wild hand that you played like shiit. Thats what we can get convo and usually learn something from. Thats why I miss some of those old Beermoney posts. Beermoney knew he was wrong in many hands that he posted, yet he posted them nonetheless. I know we all make atrocious plays from time to time ( even plays like wanting to jam with 3 flushes on third like Beer). I know some people have to have hands saved up that arent mundane and show how well they play. Not that this is directed at all at this post, I'm just saying too many of the ones I read nowadays dont glean anyone much.

I'll go through my hand history and give you guys a horrible play to talk about,I'm sure I can find more than a few.

[mscags]

I agree Mike, this hand was very standard. I'll look through my HHs and see if I can get something fun. If Party ever opens up those new tables I'm sure I'll get some good ones [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You mean you *don't* put him on (33)Q when he goes crazy after spiking a 3? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
