Well, it helps if you actually include the cards dealt to everyone else when you post a hand. In any event, assuming the final hands were dealt out in that order, hatethoseAA had an open pair of threes showing, and Jobox had four to a straight. You are showing a 3 and a 10. I don't know why you would expect anyone to fold, but you didn't have many chips left, so I guess it was an okay move. But one pair in Stud is nothing. Don't expect to win with it. Starting with a premium pair is great, hitting one on fourth street isn't so great.

Got to agree (if yeltzen is correct about the order). I would have folded on 4th street if either of those hands were betting (3-3, or, 8h-5h)
Actually, I would have folded on the deal with 10c-2h-3c

Normally, yeah, but he was the bring-in, so he didn't have much choice.
This just looks like a classic hold'em to stud hand where a big pair is overvalued.

Stud, A very tough game. You have to think, you have to remember, not like playing holdem, where the skill factor is more then likely not a premimum requirerment.

I missed that he brought in the initial bet (and I’ve never checked out of a hand in my life). But, this one is easy to let go on 4th street.

Yeah, all that keeping track of cards, and thinking and such. No wonder nobody wants to play anymore.

Yeah, screw that. I prefer Hold'em, where I can download porn, watch football, and chat on instant messenger and still make the final table of a tournament.

Your comment sounds a lot like something Chip Reese would say. Yeltzen, are you the venerable Mr Reese in disguise?

.....Please say no, Chip is my all time cash guru, stud poker hero.

Well, I was hoping my disguise would work a little longer, but...

I'm not, but if he said something similar, I totally agree. I'm amazed at how easy it is to multi-task and play hold'em. I love playing stud... it's my favorite game, but I have to admit that playing hold'em is much more attractive since it's so much less work.
