Default Jesus I\'m a nit

First limper is okay. Guy completing is terrible can probably have any pair, any 3 low, tons of 3 flushes, maybe even like AK or something. Guy that called the complete is bad but not brain dead retarded, he requires a 3 card hand low hand or a big pair to enter the pot but will play it horribly once he does. Folding here felt dirty, but I don't know how to play poker. I'm pretty sure I should play here even if all 3 opponents know what they're doing, with 2 downies and one mediocre player I'm sure folding here is awful. I've always thought I played too tight/careful in Stud 8 but never could pinpoint hands I am folding that I should play. As soon as I folded this one I practically started laughing to myself how dumb it was. Not really much "strategy" here, just tell me to play this next time in this spot please. If you actually want to fold then please say so as well.

7 Card Stud High-Low ($30/$60), Ante $5, Bring-In $10 (converter)

Your hand isn't that great and some of the cards you need are gone. But you're looking at $20 to play a $160 pot almost closing the action and presuming the first limper doesn't raise. 1-8 is about the odds of you and just one other player catching good on 4th. Seems like a good price.

I call, but you're not giving up much by passing. Never let anyone know that you're capable of folding a three-card Seven, though. Your secret is safe with us.

Easy fold.

I would only play that as the only low hand or if the other low hand has an eight up.

I think the street where some people play too weak-tight is on 4th after bricking.

Most people play way too loose on fourth after bricking.

On second thought I should say I would only *consider* playing it in those two circumstances. It's definitely not mandatory.
