I call on third [with (77)8] all day long.

This is somewhat interesting to me. I generally rank this hand roughly equivalent to say (37)8. But I have a feeling you'd be unhappy with a call with the latter hand.

I can see 778 having (weakish) potential in either direction, making it tricky to play depending what comes on 4th. I suppose there's some misdirection in having people think you're drawing to an 8 low, but calling here seems a little dodgy with a King limping in front. Basically I'm saying that to me it's a take-it-or-leave-it hand and not necessarily an easy call on 3rd or even that much better than a razz-type starting hand.
