Default River problem (NOT holdem!)

anyone ever play anaconda?
it goes like this. you get 7 cards, and then you pass 3 to your left. then you pass 2 left. then you pass 1 left. then you pick 5 cards, and lay them face down on the table in the order you wish to expose them. flip one card over. round of betting. flip second card. round of betting. etc. after you flip your 4th card, you decide whether to go high or low (eight or better) and high and low split the pot. my question is this. you have a decent, but non nut, low that is also a high (75436 let's say, in that order). you are in the CO, and two other players have gone low. the button has two pair showing. the action is to you, do you go low or high? I was hoping this would spark some discussion about representing hands, as well as odds.

I can't see this as a profitable hand to play this far.

lol, I didnt play it either...I just learned about the game, and this seemed like an interesting hypothetical situation. you can assume there is a little bit of money in the pot, but everyone will check down this final round.
