This kind of thing happens in Stud/8 sometimes: the pot goes multiway, and the players leading for each half of the pot keep jamming small edges but everyone else is priced in to keep calling along. The guy showing the Q is nuts to 3-bet 3rd with a K calling behind him, but I didn’t give him credit for AA or better and figured that pairing my Ace would be good for the high hand, which dramatically increases my equity.

The only thing that’s a little questionable here is my 4th street play, but I still had three to a flush and probably an overcard to the best pair plus a fair shot at low in a large pot. How sweet would a river 5 have been?
