Ok. So we just transitioned to Stud hi after limit Omaha 8. I've only been at the table a few hands but those were some of the most aggro O8 hands I'd ever seen. This is the first Stud hand and seat 1 is sitting out:


Everyone antes $0.02
Hero dealt J♠A♠/10♠
Seat 5 brings in 6♥ for $0.03 (pot $0.13)
Vil1. completes to $0.10 w/ K♠
Vil2. raises to $0.20 w/ A♥ (pot $0.43)
Hero ???

The other dead card is 9♦. The problem is that the limit Omaha round was super aggro, but since this is a different game, can I expect this to be a continuation of the play or a fluke? I'm not getting great odds either if both players have their repped pairs. Is this just an easy fold I'm struggling to make or can I really call here?

Odds Calculation Here

Even if you know they both have the pairs they're repping, you still have enough equity to play. And from the sound of it, them both having big pairs is a long shot.

hey C9,

do you cap? or call and see if the king caps?

I play a 7 card cash game (live), but it is a no limit format...

NL Stud is crazy.

Pretty standard call. Our hand benefits when the king comes along drawing thin, and its a big reason why we'd play our hand. If we had an overcard or two on the big pairs, then we'd like to get heads up & we should re-raise.

Well, they did turn out to both have big pairs.

Vil1
had K♣2♠/K♠
Vil2 had Q♥Q♦/A♥

This brings my equity to 0.265. I'm getting 2.15:1 on my money, and my immediate odds of hitting are 2.77:1, so if I don't believe it will get capped and I consider implied odds, the call is correct. Unfortunately it got capped, but when it came back, I had to call getting 3.65:1.

Hero called $0.20
1 fold
Vil1 raises to $0.30
Vil2 raises to $0.40
Hero calls $0.20
Vil1 calls $0.10

4th street (pot $1.33)

Hero had J♠A♠/[Ts]4♥
Vil1 had K♣2♠/K♠3♦
Vil2 had Q♥Q♦/A♥J♦

I brick on 4th. Stupidly I peel here, even figuring it will get capped again (which it does). I brick again on 5th and fold.
