UTG: $169.95 (85 bb)
MP: $161.22 (81 bb)
CO: $74.18 (37 bb)
BU (Hero): $95.00 (48 bb)
SB: $91.06 (46 bb)
BB: $143.17 (72 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($3) Hero is BTN with 9♥ 8♠ J♣ Q♠
1 fold, MP calls $2, CO raises to $4, Hero calls $4, SB calls $3, BB calls $2, MP calls $2

Flop: ($20) T♣ 6♣ 4♣ (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP checks, CO checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($20) 7♦ (5 players)
SB bets $4, BB calls $4, MP calls $4, CO raises to $8, BU (Hero)????????

Is this a fold preflop? Do you call jjqk, tjqk jjtk preflop here?
What should i do on the turn?

Calling pre. Turn is an easy fold with a flush and low out.

I think pre is probably a fold, we need to be super selective with high-only rundowns. The other hands you mentioned are much better.

Turn is easy fold.

Hi, just asking, which rundowns would you play?

I would fold pre-flop, playing a single-suited hi-only rundown is probably not profitable (unless your opponents are super tight).

I'm folding preflop...7,8,9 are easily the worst cards in the deck in O8, and you have two. If the 8 were a 10, I'd probably call if I was bored...remember, you need a 5 or 10 to make a straight!

Turn is easy fold...you're only playing for half the pot, you may be dead already, and could easily be getting freerolled by someone with a low/set.

Sometimes people show up with really strange holdings in this game, especially at lower limits or if they were raised on NLHE. This appears to be one of them. I assume there was at least one A2 out there?

it's a middle not high rundown, so it's easy fold pre

I ask myself what is the best hand I can get and will it scoop the pot with the nuts?
