Re: PLO $25 How do you play it?
SB's flat call of your river bet is one of the most retarded plays I've ever seen. What the hell is he afraid of? Quads? BTW did you make that 1/3 river bet to induce a call or raise, or did you make...

Re: PLO8 MTT hand from ziz
You know when Fiasco said something about Villain having 9 outs twice to beat you I began to think, "Well, there's no Omaha law that states he can't have J4 or JJ and have you beat already". As far...

Fold preflop. Never get all in (or risk getting all in) with high only hands . Flat calling UTG's raise is an option, but it's marginal as it's 1/10th of your chip stack. You're also...

Fiasco, we talking PL or L? Unless you can pull a David Blaine and manage to snag the case Ace every time out I doubt playing AAAx is going to show much of a profit.
