Let's take a look at some best possible low hands, on the basis of a few sample boards. Why do we need to figure out what the best possible low hands are in 08B? Because when we conclude that we hold the best possible low hand, then we should be putting in as many raises as we can. When we have the best possible low hand, then of course we will usually win at least half of the pot, and we want our half to be as big as possible.

There are some situations in which you may want to stop raising on the end when you have the best possible low, primarily when there are only three players left, you have only a low, and the betting indicates that you're probably up against at least one other player with the same low. If that turns out to be the case, you'll win only one-quarter of the pot (this is called "getting quartered"), and thus you'll lose a small percentage of your own last bets and raises, but don't worry too much about this uncommon outcome yet.
