    In PLO8, betting is situational, in LO8 betting is not situational, if you have anything you should bet it, the only question is whether or not you should raise it, and that's based on how many people you think will call the original bet vs call the raise.

    Just bet the flop, bet the turn, smooth call raises and go for it on the river. There's no secret to limit betting in LO8, hand selection, hand reading, flop/turn/river analysis and pot odds are all you need to know.

    If this were a PLO8 hand, there's no reason to bet or raise other than for value. You have the nut low draw and none of your straight or flush draws are being forfeited to another flush or low. Some one with A2s would suck, but it's rare and he isn't leaving the pot regardless, and if you keep the other players in, quartering the low is at least +0 EV. Just hope some with a set does the dirty work for you.

    That hand is sick, I'd go broke with it.

    In a cash game I would bet flop and turn probably, in an Sng my concern was raising and getting reraised and being forced to put my Sng life on a draw (although I would call), so I preferred to keep the pot smaller

    I think a bet is good, since we want people to pay to chase inferior low draws/flush draws, etc
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
