Really would like opinions on these numbers, be picky, cause I'm kinda a noob at 7s8

OK, quick strategy Q.

If I have made my low with a card or two to come, and I know 2-4 others are drawing to a possibly better Low,but havent gotten their yet, and of course I can still improve mine, I should bet my ass off right?

Fourth street seen % looks a tad high, but within the realm of variance for a single event so I wouldn't panic. Looks like you're maybe seeing sixth street a touch too often...that drop in percentages from your sixth street to showdown should ideally come between fifth and sixth street IMO.

As for your question, it depends on a couple things -- how solid is your low and do you have any shot at making the high as well. If you made it but you're 8-high and don't appear to have any realistic shot at the high, then I wouldn't go too gonzo betting unless you feel confident the betting will knock most of the lows out. On the other hand, if you're fairly confident with your low and have even an outside shot at high (say a gutshot straight draw), then I'd go apeshit raising because the worst you're likely going to get out of it is the low half and if you catch a miracle gutshot then the scoop is going to be mighty fine to the ol' chip stack.

Should I make the other hands pay ot draw to the low? LIke if the guy who has AAA showing bets, should I raise to eliminate them if the pot is big enough already??

BTW: I $'d, but just barely LOL. I was 7th in chips with 75 players left, I made it 70th. I didnt know you could do that in a limit event LOL. Just ended up with a string of really good, yet second best hands that were HU by 4th.

Give us some hands, Marm. I can get a better vision that way. Hold'em is a fairly general hand ranking game [I]compared[I] to 7S and 7S8 in which relative hand strength has more reason to be questioned.
