PL O/8 – Raising with low to …
I just start playing .25/.50 PL O/8.
There was a hand with a monotone flop and two low cards. EP bets (not sure how much, less than pot), I call in MP with A2xx and two call behind me.
Turn is the third low card giving me the nut low. EP bets again (less than pot ), I raise about half of what he bet, and the two behind me fold.
River is some blank, EP makes a modest bet, I call and we split the pot.
Even though I normally play passively when I have only the low, I decided to raise the Turn to pressure the players behind me to avoid being quartered or worst. The table had been playing fairly tight post-flop with most players unwilling to call anything more than a minimum bet.
Any comments on the Turn raise would be appreciated.
TIA,
greenage
