We're playing sequence and we gotten through the first up card but here's the question. What do you do if you got a wild card after 4th street? How should you play? Let's look at that, I have an eight and a queen coming out, there's a five and a jack at this time, deuces are wild cause this deuce came out on 3rd street. That is how I stacked it before I did this hand and you can look at your cards of course (you can look at your pocket cards) so be sure that you know that. I'm looking and I have a pair of queen showing but because my whole cards I actually have a pair of aces. I have the option to bet because I have the highest up hand but let's be clear about something. Before you bet think about this, there are four people in the hand and we dealt two rounds of up cards that means two rounds of up cards are coming. Which means eight cards are coming looking at my pocket cards I don't hold a three. So as far as I know, there are four three's still our there with eight cards to come, four three's still in place as far as I know. There is a better than 50% chance that a three will come as an up card, when I choose whether to bet or check I need to consider that my opponents probably know that statistically a three will come and I need not to over bet because I'm probably not going to shake any body at this time.
