fold the hand when you brick the first time.

Getting 8-1 and closing the action, this would be a mistake.

I disagree. The 6 defines the fold, the hero will be first to act on the next round putting him in an uncomfortable position if he improves one card. Yes its possible to catch a hand, but the 6 makes it more likely that the Hero will catch a hand such as 87623 - which may hold up, but is still not a good holding.

The pot is just not big enough to take the risk IMHO.

It would be profitable to continue for one bet on the next round (and two aren't likely) if you caught only a 7. You're going to do that more than 1 time in 9. 876 is somewhat more difficult, but you always have the option of dumping the 8.

Why do you think you will do that more than one time in 9? Am I calculating my math incorrectly for a possible 4 outer to improve to a 7?
