I know, I'm a passive fish but I haven't found much information on this game yet...but it seems very fun. (stakes were .01-.01 on UB)

Hero is dealt
Button checks
Op1 checks
Hero checks

Op1 takes 3
Hero takes 1 (should I drop the 7 here?)
Button takes 2

Hero is dealt :Qs: for :Qs:
Op1 checks
Hero checks
Button bets
Op1 folds
Hero calls

Hero takes 1
Button takes 1

Hero is dealt :As: for :As:

Hero bets
Button folds

Hero collects $0.09 from pot


Hero is dealt :Th: in the SB
JudgeMental calls
zo42 calls
Hero checks
winterdreams checks

Hero takes 2
winterdreams takes 4
JudgeMental takes
zo42 takes 2

Hero is dealt :As: :Qd: for :As: :Qd:
Hero checks
winterdreams checks
JudgeMental bets $.01
zo42 calls
Hero calls
winterdreams folds

Hero takes 1
JudgeMental takes 1
zo42 takes 1

Hero is dealt for :As:

Hero bets $.02
JudgeMental calls
zo42 folds

Hero shows :As: and has 7-6-5-2-A
JudgeMental shows for 8-7-5-4-3
Hero collects $0.11 from pot

I had to recreate these since UB's HHs are retarded. Are these hands fine? Any part of them played incorrectly? Anyone know of a good book or site for this game (I've read the stuff linked to on 2+2)?

I'm still a triple draw fish, but I'm trying to learn as well, and Daniel Negreanu's section in Super System 2 has been a helpful resource so far.

I'm not sure how the first hand should be played, but taking 2 and drawing to 5-4-2 is probably best.

On the second hand I'd probably take three and draw to 5-6 rather than hope that a rough 7 holds up a multiway pot. After the first draw, probably check-fold for the same reason. I'm fairly sure 7-6-5-2-A is insanely weak in this game, especially multiway. After the second, I might check-call and discard the 7, but check-folding might be the right play. You have to think you're way behind at every stage of this hand, unless your opponents are donkeys, in which case there are still better opportunities to win their money. Value betting 7-6-5-A-2 on the final round doesn't really make much sense. I have no idea why JudgeMental called you on the end with a rough 8, or why he was even in the hand. It looks like he thought he was playing Deuce to Seven.

(Also, why are there only two draws in this hand?)

Haha, I only have this Hand History because I pasted it onto PokerHand before I decided to post it here. I stood pat after the 2nd draw and since PokerHand didn't show me more cards I missed part of the hand:


Third Round:

CHECK edudinator checks. JudgeMental checks. zo42


edudinator stands pat. JudgeMental stands pat. zo42
takes 1 card.

From the stand pat on the 2nd draw he had to have thought he was playing 2-7
