Somewhat New To O8

[RISEorFall 0]

I keep hearing how bad most low limit O8 players are and have been downswinging like crazy on the hold em tables, so i figured id play O8 for a bit. I have a general knowledge of the game, better than most who just started out, but a few of the concepts (like when to fold nut lows, etc) elude me.Here's a nut low hand I think i could've given up...pokerroom .50/1 10 handedRISE is CO with A 2 3 7 PF: UTG folds, UTG1 calls, UTG2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, RISE calls, button folds, SB calls, BB checksFlop: (6 SB) 7 10 4 SB checks, BB checks, UTG1 bets, MP2 calls, MP3 raises, RISE calls, SB folds, BB folds, UTG1 calls, MP2 callsTurn: (7 BB) 2 UTG1 bets, MP2 raises, MP3 3-bets, RISE calls, UTG1 calls, MP2 callsRiver: (19 BB) J UTG1 bets, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, RISE calls

I've seen things like A-5 come all the way down for the ride at those levels though too.

first, with that many in, raise preflop.4way you NEVEREVEREVEREVER fold a nut low. you should be raising it 90% of the time on the river. remember, even if you're getting 1/4, you're breaking even, and you never know what others might have. you have to split it 3 way more than half the time to make that raise on the river a bad play in the long run. there's a part of the o8 section of ss2 that talks about this "maybe i'm quartered, maybe i'm good for half multiway" type of decision. baldwin explains it better than i could, but basically, just raise it if you have a nut hand on the river and the pot is guaranteed to be 3way or better unless you have a strong read telling you to just call.edit: this might be one of those just call situations judging by the turn action, but you're not folding anywhere in this hand for sure.

If I flop a nut low (usually with A2) on a board with no counterfeit protection or a chance for high I would usually fold unless there are a lot of players in the pot.

giving up value much?

I'd probably raise at every opportunity except the flop.

would folding this flop with that action before you be reasonable?

at these levels you should probably be playing any A2, A3. in most cases you should even draw for half w/o C/f protection. don't fold the nut low on the flop.i can't think of any scenario where a hand that flops the nut low has absolutely no chance at high. i've seen flops come all one suit and then come something like KK and the person with the K takes the high.PLO8 is a different story.
