Default Re: Limit O8 - Folding too much? Example #2

I'm certainly not the most experienced or successful player on this forum, but I'm surprised there has been such strong support for throwing money in the pot with this hand. It may be borderline, but I think it is on the bad side of the border.

I think the only times it can be profitable to play a hand like this on the turn are when you are short handed or your opponents are complete idiots (which sometimes they are, but such a read wasn't mentioned by OP).

So, if you've found an O/8 game where people are betting J high flushes and A5 low draws while at the same time they fold K high flushes and nut low draws, then call or raise the turn and add everyone at the table to your buddy list.

Otherwise, I still think it is a fold.
