5/10 Stud Hi - Bad river fold?

[BBB]

Hi; I lurk a lot and don't post much, but I had a couple of interesting hands recently I thought I'd post.

I gave this a lot of thought before folding, and I can't decide if I made the right play.

My limp on 3rd is questionable, I think; the game was very soft, and was playing more like 1/2 or 2/4 than 5/10.

READS: Seat 4 is an idiot. I'm unfamiliar with seat 7.

Total pot: (14.78 BB)

[Andy B]

You're probably beaten, but I think the pot is way too big to fold for one bet on the river.

[Pokeraddict]

I would not call it a bad fold, I agree with Andy though. You are in that far, might as well call with a 15BB pot. I guess I am just enough of a fish to have done so at least.

3rd:This ia definately worth a call imo.In fact,I like completing on this hand.
4th:At this point,you are on a 4 card draw against a presumed flush with 3 cards to come.You have seen 16 cards,leaving 36 remaining.The odds against you are 32 to 4=8 to 1.There are 8.9 bets in the pot.Call.
River:With 14.78 bets in the pot,you only have to have a winner about 1 time out of 7 for the call to be correct.Also,if you feel unclear in a river situation such as this,I would lean toward a call because this tends to discourage people from tryin to move you off of hands in the future.

Its way better than that, dont you only have to be a winner 1 out of 14.78 to break even.

Preiserone. You're right,of course.I can be a dumb s#it sometimes.lol.

[preiserone]

lol, we all make mistakes, and I do more than most people.
