Default Re: The Nuts! (PLO8)

I shove here. If he is raising everything as you say in the first sentence, he might have flopped a staight with like 96 and be going a little nutso since he actually has something. If he usually has good hands when he raises as you state later, I don't see many good hands you would be too worried about. Seeing TTA2 here every time is too weak. You have the nuts, and may be getting freerolled buy JT with 2 low cards, but he may have something like TP and A2 which really isn't too bad for your hand. You still may have Q outs to scoop. Too bad you don't have a back door FD. If you are going to play something speculative for a raise (and I view a high only hand like this one as pretty speculative), then that backdoor flush potential is often nice.
