    seems marginal with a Q and a 8 already out.

    seems like 5th you got a little carried away, but you have 11 outs with 22 known cards, you probably had equity to raise, and you are going to the river no matter what.

    probably played well for stud hi.

    Anyone care to tell me why raising 4th is a bad play?

    I like everything you did this hand. if no one raises you have to call with 6 outs to a straight draw there are no dead 7s or Ks. you take a shot to hit a Q or 8 on 4th and you then have 7 outs to make the straight. To a complete I fold, but for the bring in I'm calling this all day, I might even raise since the only higher card is the Queen, so pairing any of your cards could very well be top pair.

    36 unknown cards and 6out with 3 cards to come? What is your equity? Probably wouldn't be bad, to raise. The boards aren't too scary.

    Yeah sorry about that, I originally changed it all to "hero," but then realized I f-ed it up by leaving out half of fourth street and half of fifth street, so I just copied back over it, replacing it with my screen name. Yes for those confused, my handle is ronza_1.
