I dont think that UTG flat called two bets on the flop, and then failed to cap the flop with the nut straight on a two low two flush board. Much more likely he has A34 or something similar like A36 or 346.

you might be right, but he did say these players are terrible.

What is good with the hand:

+ A23 on a H/L is a good for the low

What is bad:
- No suits!
- A pair of 2's
- You only have a hand for the low!

What happens on the flop:
- Could be a made hand
- flushdraw
- Lots of action, a made hand or strong draws!

What happens on the turn?
- You hit a set on a borad that coudl have a made hand!
- Your A/3 becomes counterfited!
- A lot of action!

What hapens on the flop?
- You have a set of 2's!
- You are beat by most of the hands that could be held at the table
- Your low is 8 high!

A7, A6, A4, 27, 26, 24, 34, 36, 37, 46, 47, <u>67</u> have you beat for the low. I say you made a bad call on the river! You will not win the Low enough times against 4 other players to justify a call. The Nut straight have you beaten for the low!

You're right of course. Gotta stop looking at these on the back end of a 10 hour session.

After reading this thread, a fold on the river now seems correct. I can't think of four sensible hands that the villains can hold where you would get any piece of this pot. The caveat is that I probably would have played this hand the same way. That 2 on the turn is very deceptive in its sweetness. Maybe a call on the turn would have been better? Other than that, the river was nasty nasty nasty.

i don't understand the flop 3 bet in a multiway pot.

there's little to no fold equity here and you'd be better off keeping the worse lows around especially with your coutnerfeit protection.

turn is fine.

river. . .pay it off. you're probably not getting any of it but i can't see how 26:1 pay off can't be justified one way or another.
