Low limit O8

I've been playing a lot of low limit O8 sit and go's on FT recently and doing pretty well.  There's a lot of people out there who just don't have the first clue what they are doing at O8.  The money is not huge since I am playing $5 and $10 tourneys, but I've been happy with my play and it gets me some practice both at tournaments and at O8, which I really only get to play live these days at pink.  Plus, while I'm not in school, it's a good way to kill some time.



Was cruising along in one today until this rather unfortunate hand (see below).  After this, I played the short stack really strong and was hanging tough til my nuts on the turn got baby flushed on the river by someone hanging in with the nut low draw.  Booo...



As far as this hand, yeah I probably shouldn't have played it in the first place (though I was in the small blind), but what the heck is the whitewood47 doing calling all the way for?  The only card that can come to make him/her feel happy about his/her hand is a 4.  Nice hit, sir.
