I think when BB pats after drawing 1 and then bets into you, you have to assume your 87 is no good. I can see patting behind after the first draw to see if he breaks, but when he pats again I think you have to ditch the 8.
raise after first draw and this hand is a whole lot easier. as played, you have to bet after the 2nd draw.

this plus fold pre-draw unless you have control over the table.

Yea, this is a hand that I only play if I'm pretty confident that I cant get it HU from the start, since I'm going to have to turn it into a snow a lot of the time. The hand is converted a little funny but if you are indeed UTG I like folding.

In general, fold this predraw. Hands with a 6 are bad news. You make 2nd best hands and straights way too often.
To me, calling a bet and then patting is horrible. You should raise round 2 and bet if he checks round 3. His play looks like he's also playing something weak, like an 87 or possibly a 9. If you represented a stronger hand, he might have broken it. Also, MP might not have stuck around for 2 bets after round 2.

I was just re-reading this thread, and I think I like raising UTG, and drawing to 7643 if HU and drawing to 743 if 3way+.

ss2 isn't a winning style of 2-7 in very many settings anymore, fyi
this hand is fine HU, marginal 3way, and terrible more multiway than that.
