Re: PLO8 (Party $100) : heads-up...
i really don't like this call preflop. the hand is just not the kind that makes a nut hand without the low being out, and needless to say you do not want to be relying on a 7-6 low to win you any money. in pot limit hands like this are especially bad, because if you hit a straight, you likely will win zero if you get half the pot, unless two nut lows are out.
as for the turn play, this is interesting. there is a reasonable chance your straight is good, and if not, there is a good chance that your low or flush draws may win for you. i wouldn't really like pushing in with the hand, but against an opponent capable of making this raise without a QT, i think i do it.
but you really shouldn't be there with this hand, even if it's only half a bet to play it. hands like this are decent for PLO high, but not in this game.
