Re: Razz: Fold or chase on 5th?
Your opponent can only have you boardlocked if he catches better than you on 6th and then catches again on 7th, because otherwise the best he'll have is an 8. That's one reason I say you need to catch better than him on 6th to continue.
Anyway, whether you put in 2 bets to win 4 (if there's no bet on the river) or 3 bets to win 5 (if there is), you're getting good enough odds. Well, 5:3 isn't quite good enough but it's close enough.
There's also a better chance than normal that he paired the 8, or has a worse card than 8 in the hole, because of 3rd st action (unless he's one of those who never raises 3rd)
