Sometimes in that spot where I I think i have the best high hand and I know i am getting freerolled, I check and a card comes off that enables a bigger hand. Then the other guy comes out and pots it. The issue I have is that if I fold this every time, I am letting a guy with just a low bluff me off half the pot and I'll just get run over. But if I call every time I am laying 2 to 1 that I'm good for high and I'm putting my money in just to win it back. This is why I prefer limit high low because there I can always call and not worry about it. So I think to avoid that problem it is better to get it in potentially freerolled and hope they fold or call with a high hand thinking you got the low. I think as well what you mentioned about the guy fearing getting quartered is a big factor in why betting instead of checking is better. Even though you are certain if all the money went in you are freerolled, the truth is their current high hand is very likely much weaker than yours (they will have ace highs and one pairs A LOT) so they have to worry you have the low with better for high. Not only that, to call a bet they can't call with any low - it has to be nut low unless they have something serious with it. So when you bet you put pressure on them to lay it down. That's why the high hand is way more important in pot and no limit O8 than fixed limit. But you gotta know who is the guy who is gonna fold those low hands and who is calling off with any old rubbish.

One more thing: if you check, you let ANY low freeroll you FOR FREE. Infinite pot odds. That has to be a disaster in a large pot. In a nothingball pot, few big blinds, no big deal. But 100bb+ you can't just let cards roll off just because you're scared of being freerolled. Bet and force them to have nut low.

Yeah the Orleans is extremely soft. Great place to build a bankroll…. Best part of the Orleans is those players have been playing bad for 20 years and they are never gonna change how they play!

so like in the 3j89 example, i see what you're saying, but you're already blocking 2 reasonably high spades they could get, so if they do get there you know that a 2 4 5 6 7 are all unblocked, vs 10 q k. so you're less likely to be good there. i think snowing is really only good here if you're snowing with 3 low spades. i guess the 8 is ok-ish but like having like 3 4 6 of spades is infinitely better than what you're snowing with here. also all aces and 2's are unblocked, so they may even call you down with a 3 card.
