Re: 8/b avoiding draws for 1/2 the pot
In order for seat 3 to have a better draw than you,he had to start off with 2 cards in the hole 6 or lower,not complete,& not pair on 4th.Not likely.
For seat 5 to have a better low draw,he had to begin with 73,72,or 2 cards 6 or lower,not complete,7 then not pair on 4th.Not likely either.Seat 6 does not look like a low draw with a Q as his door card.
Therefore,it is reasonable to assume that you have the best low draw on 5th.Your high chances are very slim.You would have to hit 2 running cards composed of a 5 & either an A or a 6 with one 6,two 5's,& 2 A's gone.Bur,even though your high chances are negligible,I believe it is correct to take off another card with the best low draw(hopefully)in this multi-way pot.It is right to avoid 1/2 pot draws.This situation may be marginal,or I may be wrong.
Anyone?
