Default Re: 8/b: (6 4) 4 turns into low two pair

i believe your mistake was made on 3rd st. small pairs with baby kickers are marginal hands .. a limp is ok as long as you're willing to fold to a raise .. a raise is ok as a steal, but here you're early positioned with small antes. raising and calling a reraise is not good idea as your hand will be second best too much of the time and you'll usually be up against a bigger pair and a better low draw. it's even more important to generally fold these hands in tourneys as they can eat up your stack. the ideal time to play these in tourneys is in last position in an unraised pot.
