Default Re: (stud8) misplayed hi-only hand?

The raise on fifth is the only thing I might do differently. I'm not too worried about trip 5s with one dead, he may well have just a four card low here (maybe with a straight draw). These are the kind of hands where I'm often fine with just making sure a bet goes in on fifth and sixth, whether from me or opponent, because once I have Aces up, I'm committed to showdown unless beaten in sight but I have no scoop chances and opponent may.

It is hard not to play that hand given the large number of low cards that are dead. I think you have to call on 7th given he could be betting a low with a small two pair.
