PLO8 advice please
Rhino56:
I agree with fatcatstu, certainly a fold for me. I would have folded the previous hand as well. It might seem like value, but you really have poor cards for both high and low pots.

We don"t even know what the previous hand was!
With 1/3rd of your stack in the middle I am not ever folding pre. Jam it in and hope to get it heads up.
Rhino56:
Sorry Mark, I got my wires crossed there. but still a definite fold for me.

Definitely fold pre. This is micro-stakes PLO8, so no-one folds. This hand is utter garbage pre, post, heads up, multiway, whichever way you look at it. With a hand with decent high potential I"d get it in (AKxx would be enough), and if I had a good low hand with minimal high potential I"d take a flop and get it in if I flop alright.
Better off waiting for Awxx or a decent high hand and getting it in then.
Getting it in on the flop is less bad, but still pretty marginal even with your stack size.
Jon MW:
In general I"d shove with any cards when you"re so short stacked and you"re in the big blind, but this hand is so bad that I think I could probably fold it and keep my fingers crossed that I get something at least as good as mediocre in the small blind.
