Stud hand line check

So I am kind of clueless about this game, read Daut's guide and played a tourney (runner up from 31 entrants )

Where to raise, where to fold? Or was this correct?

3rd street: why do you flat with AA. raise

4th street is fine
5th street im betting out, u have 4 flush and still have aces - you're big right now vs what they are showing
6th looks fine
7th looks fine

You need to raise AA on 3rd street until the software won't let you raise any more. You're ahead of anyone not rolled up, and you want to get heads up or close to it.

4th. Raise again you picked up a 3 card flush, if this was in reverse and you called with A32sss you would def raise when your ace paired
5th RAISE, 4 to ace high flush, and an aces up draw!!!!!!!
6 and 7 are fine, but only as played. There shouldn't be so many people in the pot at the end when you start with aces.

lol calm down homie. at least he will know to raise aces on 3rd street

its my job here to inform people when they are making a terrible post
literally

3rd street was a mistake actually. I don't lead on 5th street because effectively I am on a draw now as it is very likely for villains to have a draw that has already / will have hit by 7th street, or they have already a better made hand (given 4th street either seems likely). If I bet out and get raised I end up putting in more money than what is favourable with a draw

And raising 4th street doesn't seem good to me, everybody shows strong draws that don't block each other and they start pumping in the money instead of calling with the given odds, and that shows monster strenght. It's not that they can hope to get a free card on 5th street since the pot is 4way. My edge if any seems marginal there.

well on 5th street ur draw is massive

even if villain has trips (which u have no reason to believe he does) you have 10 outs with 2 cards left
and if villain doesn't have trips you have 18

cool thanks for the input everyone

i'd prolly try and put in as many bets as possible in the first 5 streets imo. then start getting grossed out by the next cards.

I'm definitely jamming the first 5 streets and as played with these boards on 5th I'm still raising, because the only real hands I'd expect to have me beat are 2pair as being the most likely by far, and maybe some kind of straight flush draw that got there for sneakyman on 5th. Also, no one is going to put you on AA here because you for some reason decided not to raise on 3rd, so they might have wider ranges as well because of it.
