Table is loose and terrible in general, but otherwise no specific reads. 4th was an attempt to thin the field and build the pot with my big two pair (mostly the latter given these boards). Obviously Seat 1's board is very scary on 5th, particularly given the action on 4th, but hearts are pretty dead, there's a good chance he's one of those super loose players who can't fold a pair on 4th and will just keep calling with it (discounting the likelihood of a 4-flush), and I don't want to give a free card to 3 opponents if my hand is good, so I bet. On 6th, Seat 1 has a monster board and checks? I cannot think of what hand he might have that I am beating after this action. I just decide to play cautiously and try for a free card. Once he checks again, I'm fairly sure I have him beat, so I make a value bet where I hope to get calls, maybe even overcalls, from worse two pair hands.

Thoughts?

 4th: If you thought a bet was coming C-R is good, none of the boards looks scary, so I would probably bet it

5th: Seat 1 looks scarybut I would still bet it, if he did not hit I dont want to give him a free card.
6th: I think chicking is correct.
7th: You probably have seat 1 beat, I am not sure betting for value here is correct, because they all seem to be drawing for something that may beat you, you may get paid by worse 2 pair, and probably raise if someone made his hand

I think the pot is too big to check on 6th. Once you make a big pot on 4rth, I think you need to just blast away and hope for the best. With all four of your outs to improve still there, you're pretty much committed to 7th street.

I don't have anything to contribute, but I think it's marvelous how a stud converter has been made. Stud hands are so damn hard to read!

Yeah, I think I should have just bet 6th. I still have no clue what Seat 1 must've had.
