Yep fold this. You can't hope on anything better than a 87low. Opponent catched two very good cards and you don't even have a hand yet. Actually, i would not have bet 4th street.

i think you are right the bet on 4th street was pretty marginal especialy with the very nice card he hit on 4th sometimes its very difficult too find strategy topics on razz so everything i know i had to learn first hand i realy think that razz is a fun game but isnt in the spotlight as much as it should be

I agree this should have been folded on 4th street. I also agree that Razz is a fun game. i really like it, and somehow I usually get pretty lucky in it. I've never played a Razz tournament though, but every time I'm playing H.O.R.S.E. I'm increasing my stack on Razz tourn

i dont think that you get lucky more then other players. its just that razz is one of the games people play worst. especialy in a horse tournement i won a horse tournement 2 weeks ago and i saw the same thing but the game people realy cant play is stud high low thats the game were people make the biggest mistakes they play split pairs from KK to 99 those hands are a instant fold for me. you cant make the low so you have people freerolling on you and rivering maybe 2 pair trips or a straight . stud high low is where i mostly get all my chips in a horse tournement.
here you can see my tourney results **link removed, too many poker ads on that page, violates our rules**
