Re: Why do people play Hi hands in Stud 8/b???
862 rainbow is pretty ragged. If your opponents are passive and real bad, you can get away with it, but folding is better. Andy is right. Fear the Aces behind you.
On fourth, I would be looking for a free card. The Ace and the bring-in caught good.
6th is debatable. 5th checking through makes me suspect the two pair is good for high, but the pot is tiny and the Ace has 4 to a low showing.
