PStars PLO8 .10/.25
Am I chasing like a fool here? I think an argument can be made on each street for a different play than what I made, which is why I thought the hand was interesting. Comments on all streets welcome.

MP1 checks, CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $20.6...</font>
In particular...
- is the preflop call too loose?
- would anyone pot the flop? Top pair plus nut low with protection is a pretty good hand... but I just called because I wanted action. A mistake?
- is the turn a fold? To me MP1 seems likely to have the top straight, while CO probably has the nut low just like me. Am I just asking to get quartered by calling here?
- river bet - actually I don't think any other play here makes much sense, but if anyone else would just check/call here I'd be interested in the reasoning.
