Do you play 2-7 TD any?

If so, essentially treat it as the last draw in TD, i.e. J-low is a favorite over any 1-card draw.

I've been playing 2-7 TD nonstop lately, crushing the micro-limit ring games and the $1.10 and $5.50 SNGs.

I've been playing both a little bit more lately, frankly I don't know the game well enough to play 5/10 and I just don't feel like I'm making any money at the lower limits. BB/100 I'm sure I'm doing fine, but it's a slowwwww grind.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

2-7 single draw is a really fun game that, because there is only one piece of information given in the hand, is more of a leveling game than anything. here are some tips:

-Position is extremely extremely important! knowing what another person draws can dictate what you should be drawing or if you should possibly make an elaborate bluff by standing pat or drawing one.

- good draws to a 7 or 8 low are monsters and should be treated like semi bluffs (like in holdem). With these draws position matters less because your opponent will probably know that you have a monster draw regardless.

- I'm pretty sure if you have a Good J low in position and your opponent draws you should almost always stand pat.

Highly dependant on number of opponents

The above quote is probably the best advice I've read about single draw. The quote about the number of opponents in the hand is very useful as well. Read Negreanu's chapter on triple draw in Super System II and apply his last draw theories to single draw.

Hey Ray, it is always good to know that you are still around, and I certianly wish you the best of luck in life and at the tables. I still am not playing as much as in the old days, but when I do play I have been holding my own.

Thanks for the comment on the PS avatar. I still really like it and am glad/surprised that you remembered it. I wish AP would let me change mine there that did not turn out properly. I almost kept my Vegas247 account over the AP account just because I liked the avatar better, but I chose not to because I wanted to keep the DINGO8MYBABY name at atleast one poker site where I was still playing. Take care, bro.
