Default stud question regarding A (99)

I have A (99). I raise the bring in and am called by a K (XX) and Q (XX). On 4th street I catch a 9, but both my opponents pair their door cards. King bets and the queen raises.

Call or Fold?

You still haven't explained most of your hand. Do you have 4 suited cards? 3? Is this High/Low?

High. Shouldn't matter. Just need to know if I should fish around for a boat or not.

Probably the least amount of experience here, but I'd fish around for at least one more card, then see how the other opponents proceed.

Did you edit your original post? Maybe I just read it wrong. I thought in the original, you left out the part about pairing your 9.

Anyways, I would raise. I am guessing that Kings just has the pair and is trying to bet you out of the pot. Queens has two pair and doesn't want Kings two draw to three of a kind. I see no reason why Queens would raise with trips on 4th street. If you get reraised that should raise a flag.

At that point i would say so for it cause you never know they might have just had 2 pair when the second king hit as for the queen i would say the same but all depends on how they bet and what the board is

I like willy's post that is a great question...I personally am not a big fan of 7 card stud on Pokerstars....Flushes get hit way to often...and anyone that actually plays stud knows that a flush doesnt get hit as often as that website allows...but also going back to the trips...in stud I would almost never fold trips unless a a 4 card flush was showing a 4 card strt was showing or someone had higher trips then me showing..the odds are in your favour no matter what..playing just straight three card poker the odds of hitting a pair preflop are 1/12 and u already have ur pair of 9's the odds of them having trip kings or trip queens is minut to start out with..also you should be paying attention to other peoples starting cards showing...take for example if another player had a queen or a king showing you can limit them to a 1-52 chance of hitting there trips.. not knowing any buried cards at all..stud is a true essence of playing other peoples cards before playing your own.
