I'd like to know what card you get on the river before I answer your question to bet or not?I definitely bet an A or 2. Probably a 6 - defintely at least check call a 6.But if I miss my 7 low, I'll check fold if I'm confident this player isn't leading 5th and 6th if he can't beat my board.

Well, you are drawing extremely slim here.. at least two sixes are gone, one duece is gone, and you pretty much have to figure, with your own holdings, that a portion of the As and 2s are in your opponents hole cards. That leaves you realistically looking for about 6 cards that are not an 8 (yeah I know, there's 9 possible outs, but you have to give your opponents some credit here).. I do *not* think we take this down if we hit a miracle 8 on the river. We started well, but there's no way we are a favorite drawing that marginally into the river. He's paired, we are paired, he could be paired underneath to, which makes you likely to check-call 6th. You could always get cute and bet out on 7th no matter what you get in the hole, but he isn't folding anything that currently beats 9 low anyways, so meh.

This is the problem with completing with a lot of dead outs on 3rd. That's not to say it wasn't correct to do (I do this regardless), but if I face resistance, I'm willing to let this go.Methinks villain has an 8 down though. If he could beat your board on 4th, he 3-bets. He doesn't. That leads me to believe he has an eight down. In which case you're way ahead. He might also have a nine down, which puts you in the same position.If I'm right (pretty sure I am), you can just keep letting him bluff. It's not a lock that he bluffs on the river, but still a good shot, so if you improve, this is one spot where I think a crafty check/raise goes a long way. You're not losing a ton of value if it goes check check.Bear in mind that I despise trap plays in Razz, but am advocating it here. Seems like a great play in this spot.

I would be slightly worried that Villan decided not to 3-bet 4th, hoping to get that chance on 5th when the bets double. I'm not ready to say Hero is ahead here, but I see the logic of your train of thought. Two 8s have been shown though. You need to be very sure villan is capable of running a multi street bluff (leading 5th, 6th and then 7th) with one of the other two 8s, or even a 9, in the hole before you check-raise the river.
