With that many players still in the hand, someone has that flush, you gotta fold.

It did have some value preflop if the board went high only, I was done with it after the flop pretty much.

Here's why I posted it. To those new to O8/b, esp. those coming from a hold'em background, It would appear this hand had 12 possible outs. 2 Ace's, 2 10's, 4 Q's, and 4 7's. In reality it is almost certain to have 0 outs.

A 3rd Ace is worthless because if there is 3 to a flush it's almost certain someone will have a flush and now that there is a pair on the board it's also very likely someone will have a full house.

A 3rd 10 runs into the same flush.

A Q gives u a straight but the flush is still there and now a Ace high straight is possible too.

a 7 give u a straight but lest we forget the flush.

Did I mention that we'd be drawing with slim hopes for only half the pot? with 3 low cards it's almost certain someone will make a low, most likely would be a 2 3.

thats why i said fold preflop,
ur basicly hoping to catch a FD or a set, and even then most likely for only half the pot.

set of T's is kinda crappy if board comes with high hands also

sure with position u might come along, but ur done on the flop
there is no way u can put any more bets in.

Eh, reasonable call multiway on the button, as many of the hands you make can become scoops (high only boards).

But after that flop I'm not putting in any more bets most of the time. Definitely fold the turn. No buts about it.

I like the call preflop. Lots of limpers in O8 usually means lots of low cards and the deck should be rich in high cards. At these stakes though I dunno if that principle applies, lol.

But yeah pretty easy check/fold hand on flop/turn.
