Now I just need a blog to post a hands for future analysis. Everyone is welcome to comment.

Hand 1. Split Low Pocket Pair (Stud8 in 8-game)
These are the hands I used to play agressively, especially HU (if no big card is in the game), though Ceegee videos changed my mind a bit. Typical hand.

3rd street: I am up against some low hand (wired pair will probably raise me). Against it I have 55-60% equity.
4th: he paired door card, I bricked. It is unlikely he had 3 hidden, so I raise. Bad raise. Against bad low+33 I had 50% equty.
5th: should have continued with my read after he bricks? Got around 60% against low. BUT if he managed to pair Q or actually got trips (3bet on 4th is suspicious) I am in really bad shape.
6th: now there might be 3 situations:
- villain got 2 pair or trips, and dead for low;
- villain got 33+low draw;
- villain got 33+no low draw.
In all this situations I am not in great shape but the raise is allowing me to get out cheaply or get extra bet on 7th (I bet if improve, fold if not). Is it sound?

3rd: up against two low and a 9.
4th: significantly improves, got a low draw. Lot of diamonds, so the FD is less possible or it is rather weak. Seat 4 got a scary card that I need.
5th: now it gets stinky and I am screwed up. I am sure that Seat 4 is jamming his low. Seat 5 is all-in. Seat 3 seems to have either half-dead diamond draw.
6th street: squeezing value from seat 3. Board of seat 4 is not so strong. Also has outs to boat.
7th: bet was stupid.
Lot of mistakes and gigantic pot is lost :(

On 5th we have about 50% equity so capping (if possible) is mandatory.
On 6th we are still ahead w 43% equity and raise correctly.
On 7th bet is standart.
Did I miss some hidden value?
