Default Lesson learned with the nut low...

Do NOT pump the pot with only the nut low because it is highly likely that you are only drawing to half of the pot, and possibly only a quarter. Assuming you only have the nut low, there are two other opponents in the pot, and one of them also has only the nut low, then you only are receiving 1/4 of every bet you put into the pot because half of each bet goes to the high hand, and though half is also going to each low hand, you only own half of that. Each bet made is -1/4 bet EV!

And to think it only took me two hours of live play to figure it out [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
