Villian was playing a lot of hands in Stud round (and every other round - pretty crazy play), but this was my first in Stud8 against him. My thinking was with his paired and possible wheel board, that I wouldn't like a 3-bet ever on 7th. Given boards he knows I cannot be raising without 8 straight or better, right? I guess aces up and no low might have called, but that would be terrible with me showing 875 at best on low and raising 7th? So, did I miss a bet?

I am folding on 3rd. There is a good chance this hand will end up heads up and we just have a bad Razz hand.

We are behind any 2 random cards he might have.

Fold on 3rd. We are well behind his range and our hand plays like s***.

Welcome to the DC mix forum! Get Pumped UP!

Fold 3rd. Your hand makes two types:

1. bad lows
2. dominated highs

But now that you back-doored a hidden flush, raise the river, yes.
