On 7th street, I had As-Js-3s-2h-5h-10h-2c. My opponent had a pair of sixes, no low. I know I'm missing a fifth card to make the low, but in razz, i know that you can make your low without it. I folded on 7th, so did I make the right fold?

7-stud H/L is usually played as 8 or better. You need 5 cards that are 8 or lower with no pairs.
You did not have a low in your hand. The J and 10 are higher than 8, so they don't qualify for a low hand. You low cards were A, 3, 2, 5, 2, so they contained a pair of deuces.
Razz is a low-only game, so the lowest hand wins, even if you have a pair.
Good fold.

Yes, you made the correct fold. Not only did not have a qualifying low hand, you high was only 2-2-A-J-10. H/L is different than razz. All cardsmust be below 8.

What was the action on the last card? Could you have bet/raised where your opponent would have folded his pair of sixes? That is one way to scoop the pot.
