Hi Cooker,

"2388 is a clear fold to a bet and raise preflop."

And that's why I folded it.
But it did motivate me to ask the posters here on 2+2 what their thoughts are on the conditions under which they will play 2,3.
It amounts to the same conditions under which I already play them: ideally single or double suited, either with a high pair or two other "good" wheel cards.

The nature of O8 keeps those playing who will play any four cards they are dealt over and over again - they can scoop just often enough that they have fun. I.e. flops like 3,3,3.
The funny thing about that hand was that it kept four callers until the end. You can guess who won it: the player with pocket Aces. There was no low. One of those crazy killpots which many players like to build so that they can throw the dice and hope to be the one to win it.
