Hey guys, this was a hand that I've played on Replay Poker stud hi-lo free tournament, and it left me with so many questions. I think the way I played is not terrible, but are those the best decisions to be taken? Is the logical reasoning correct? How would you have played this hand?
Limits: 2,000/4,000/400 (800 bring-in) 7-handed
Effective stacks: 18,800
My cards: (A♠7♠) Q♠
3rd street: P1 brings-in (2♦), P2 with K♣ folds, P3 with 7♦ calls, P4 with K♦ folds, I call on HJ, P6 with J♣ folds and P7 with Q♦ calls.
Here I opt to just call despite all spades are live, because my hand is not connected at all. One Q is out, another 7 too. Also the stacks are quite short. What to you guys think?
5-way pot with 6,800. Now I have A♠7♠Q♠3♠
4th street: P7 (Q♦Q♥) bets 2,000. P1 (2♦6♠) calls. P3 (7♦5♠) calls. P4 (K♦T♣) folds. I call.
Here P7 gets a pair, but it is really unlikely he has three queens. P1 and P3 don't seem to have a great low draw. My hand improves both for high and low, but now 2 spades are out. Here would be a good spot to raise? At the moment I called because stacks are short and I would like to see more people in the hand, to maybe raise on future streets and get more value from P1 and P3 trying to reach their low hands. Also maybe getting paid from P7 that can already have two-pair, or he might think we are on a low draw.
4-way pot with 14,800. Now I have A♠7♠Q♠3♠9♣.
5th street: P7 (Q♦Q♥2♣) bets 4,000. P1 (2♦6♠Q♣) calls. P3 (7♦5♠K♥) calls. I call.
Bad card for me. But again standard to call with our flush draw and 2 spades out?
4-way pot with 30,800. Now I have A♠7♠Q♠3♠9♣6♣.
6th street: P7 (Q♦Q♥2♣2♠) bets 4,000. P1 (2♦6♠Q♣T♠) calls. P3 (7♦5♠K♥8♠) calls. I call.
Here if didn't get a low card, I think it is bad for me to keep chasing the flush with 3 more spades out.
For P1 to call, only if he is on a 4-card low draw, and P3 may have already a low (would he have bet if he had?), but my draw is better than his 8-low draw.
But with flushdraw (even with just 4 outs) + reasonable 7-low draw, we need to call 6th, right?
4-way pot with 46,800. Now I have A♠7♠Q♠3♠9♣6♣7♥.
7th street: P7 (Q♦Q♥2♣2♠) bets 4,000. P1 (2♦6♠Q♣T♠) calls. P3 (7♦5♠K♥8♠) folds. I fold.
And we get nothing. I fold with much shorter stack than when I started the hand. Was it just a bad run, or bad play?
