Re: outplayed by dave , superuser call :)
If he played it more aggro on the flop
If he had bet the flop, Dave would have c/r him (remember he had top two pair), and then he would have had to fold. I don't think there was any way for hero...

Re: outplayed by dave , superuser call :)
Not that tough a call. Like Dave says, what hand are you supposedly betting here that's consistent with the play to this point? A269? If you had an overpair to the board, you'd probably just check...

Re: Bodog Omaha 8 - Qualifying Low Hand?
Bayesian logic says:
- odds that you made a mistake (like playing Omaha Hi rather than O8, or misreading the board): 99+%
- odds that Bodog's software made a mistake: 1-%

Re: ***September Low-Content Thread***
After busting out of the nightly $5 PLO8 tourney on Stars I decided to try the $50+5 that starts at 11:30 for the first time (I usually don't want to be up that late...).
Hours later...:

Re: PLO8 0.05/0.1
Fold turn. .05/.10 is about flogging your opponents with the nuts.
Your flop bet also seems bad to me. Against fewer opponents, where you would have a decent chance of taking down the pot right away...

Re: When to bet the turn in PLO8?
Seems to me they can't both be horrible! Anyway, I would say that MP's call is fairly bad. Button's bet is correct, I would play it this way every time. You generally assume if you have AAxx and...

Re: Play AAAT? WCOOP HORSE MTT
Reverse implied odds are too grim. Maybe against a weak-tight, passive opponent you could play this profitably, but that's more or less because you could play any 4 profitably against some players,...

It would be possible to obtain a general answer to your question if you had access to all of the SNG stats from startracker or sharkscope. You could look at the distribution of ROI for both O8 and HE...

Re: O8 World Champ. Of Online Poker (pokerstars)

It seems like you're questioning both BB's decision 3-bet and SB's decision to smooth call. But like Buzz says, your post is really hard to understand - hand histories in some usual format would make...

Against one LAG player I'd be willing to mix it up here, since you're in good shape against NLD/NFD (which is a likely holding). But with two pot raises back to you I think you have to fold - the...
