Default standard flop low draw. really need to learn this

I am a hold'em player. That means I usualy bet draws. Now that I play O8 and draw for low with very slim or no high prospects, I usually bet aswell. Look at this hand, is this standard play or overaggressive with little pot equity?

Party Poker (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG folds, Hero calls, folded to button who calls, SB completes, BB checks

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, button calls, SB folds, BB folds

Turn: 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero bets, button folds

well, even though this hand is suited with a pair, it is mainly a low only hand that is very rarely going to scoop except when you win the pot uncontested. nice hand.

Its good when the blinds check to you. You have the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and may as well try to win this with some bets when you're probably a lock for half.

I'd be happy with the scoop there. No sense letting him draw for free on the river for a potential split.

Exactly how I would play it.

Keep pushing. If an ace or duece comes on the river, you still have a good hand against one or two players.

[/ QUOTE ]

Flexus - It's standard play. You bet the low draw on the flop and then you bet the nut low on the turn. Although all you have is the nut low, you're hoping to win the whole pot - and often it works out that way for you.
