Re: Is this a good spot to snow in 2-7 TD?
To my knowledge, the term "snow" is usually only used in lowball games and means a bluff with a hand that has no hope of winning a showdown. It is most commonly done when you have seen several of the "key" cards for the game in question (i.e. deuces and/or sevens in a 2-7 game), making it unlikely that your opponent has made a hand good enough to call you with.
The canonical example comes from the original SuperSystem, where Doyle Brunson describes getting quad deuces when playing a NL 2-7 lowball (single draw) game. He bet, rapped pat, and then pushed after the draw into an opponent drawing 1, knowing the best possible hand his opponent could make is 86543.
