Default Re: Benyamine (and others) on FT omaha

[ QUOTE ]
I have been playing with david (looseslots, and ggducky at UB) alot since I am mostly playing omaha now. I think he is the best omaha player I have ever played against. He is absolutly amazing and he is the biggest winner in my database. He also plays constantly (more than I do), he is a machine. But one thing to remember there is tons of varinace in omaha and the swings are massive.

I'm assuming you mean PLO. Anyway, I watched the 1k/2k O8 game for a couple of minutes one night, and saw this gem:

4-handed Omaha hi lo 8 or better. Folded to looseslots on the button, he raises. Only CaseyatTheBat calls. Flop is
A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Casey checks, looseslots bets, call. Turn is 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Casey checks, looseslots bets, call. River is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Final board AJ623 w/ 3 clubs. Casey now leads into looseslots, who calls. Casey has 6553 no clubs, so he has 6s and 3s with a live 5 for low. Scoops. It's just one hand of limit poker, blahblah, misclicks are possible, etc., but this river was played so unbelieveably horribly by BOTH players, it boggles the mind. Think about Casey's decision to bet the river here (unless it was a bluff, which would be merely a very bad bluff), and then imagine what Benyamine could've possibly called with. yumyum.
