Another can you guess hand

lstream · #1 03-07-2005, 10:05 AM

I'm not sure if there is any real strategy to be discussed here. The ending was suprising to me though. Does anyone care to take a guess as to what the two opponents ended up having? I don't have any giveaways, but don't let that stop you.

7 Card Stud High (1/2), ante 0.25.

One opponent had a pair of tens, and the other had ace high..

That's my guess.What do I win if i'm right? Oh yeah, nice quads.

PoorLawyer · #3 03-07-2005, 01:08 PM

quad 10s and a royal.

BeerMoney · #4 03-07-2005, 01:13 PM

Royal not possible, ten of diamonds already out.

lstream · #5 03-07-2005, 01:28 PM

I think our poor lawyer friend is kidding around with that guess.

Not sure what they had, but I do think you overplayed your hand a bit on fourth unless the guy with TT is a real maniac. Once he bets and is called, I may just call here and plan to raise fifth. But your raise is fine. When I'm reraised, though, I do start to give him some credit for trips.

This is exactly what I was thinking.

Okay, the ending is surprising to you, so they had to have had something unusual. That means seat 2 can't have something mundane like a buried pair, whether big or little. But either a buried pair or trips is what his 4th street action looks like; 3rd street action is passive, though, so it would either be a small buried pair or trips, and I'd say small buried pair given his 5th and 6th street action. But, again, two pair doesn't seem that surprising at the end. So, I'm going out on a limb, and saying that seat 4 had two paints, maybe one suited to the 10, and ended up with just a pair of 10's.

But that's just too bizarre. Surely nobody would stay to the end and call against two other people with just a pair of 10's on the river?

The only other real surprise would be quad 10's that failed to raise the river, but that's even more bizarre than just a pair of 10's.

I give up...

seat 2: trip 10s
seat 4: flush

but that wouldn't be surprising ...
