Caribbean Stud: Ace-King-8 high vs dealer Queen — Raise or Fold?

Question

Accepted Answer

Fold. Ace-King high folds here. None of the raise conditions are met versus the dealer's Queen: it doesn't match one of your cards, and you don't have the Queen/Jack support needed to call against a high or unmatched up-card. The Ace-King-high rule: raise if (a) the dealer's up-card is 2–Queen and matches one of your cards; or (b) the up-card is an Ace or King and you hold a Queen or Jack; or (c) the up-card is unmatched, you hold a Queen, and the up-card is lower than your fourth-highest card. Otherwise fold.
