Stud/8: 4-flush, 3 opponents

[Alchemist]

Limping with a marginal hand put me in dodgy territory on each street. Sort of a boredom call and I felt I could dump it if I catch bad on 4th. Net result is I think I botched every street.
No significant reads on the other players.

I didn't like the idea of betting into 3 people who all caught low and I haven't made my hand yet. I can't see any of them folding.

I put Seat 1 on a made low so I raised to try and get rid of the two guys behind me.

your 3rd street call is a very bad move. But at least you have a low card up to disguise how bad it is.

Once you catch the Ah on 4th, you're correct to chase to the river, especially given the other two are calling as well. In fact, I'd bet out. On 4th, you have a 44% chance of making your hand by the river. Given they're all likely to call (and maybe raise), betting isn't that bad an idea.

5th is an easy call.

6th. Both seat 1 and 8 look like they have a low, and either could be chasing a gut or open-ended straight draw (or have a made straight). Raising will only get seat 5 to fold, and you're really risking getting re-raised. A pair of kings just isn't strong enough to raise with on 6th. Your main equity is from the flush and that's 3.5:1 against.

7th. Awesome, you caught the flush. Given they called the raises on 6th it's likely they'll do it here as well so good raise. Going for the overcalls wouldn't have been a bad idea either.

And I was a bigger dog than I even realized.
Seat 1 had 77 in the hole and bricked all the way home. I do wonder if Seats 5 and 8 both had busted lows or maybe folded a rough 8 low to Seat 1's aggression.
