Re: LO8 - Strategy Question

In my view, A477 was sufficiently likely to be better than what anyone else had PF.
And it was: no one showed a better low draw. Usually you would be right. I would almost never play A477 in a game of competent players, but in that context it felt right.

I would do exactly the opposite. I may play A477 in a decent game under some conditions. For example raise with it in CO when no one opened or play 1 on 1 pot in position against someone who probably has something like A23J and my hand although not great is playable.
But in loose games its completly different. Most of the time when you have A447 you will be stuck in the middle between someone who got lucky enough to pick up A2 and some dummy who got hard because he picked up KK66 and will think its pure gold.
And geting stuck in the middle and chasing both ways is very costly.
