Re: 98s unk
I don't raise here PF; my main reason for not raising is so that my steal-raises get more respect (so probably for same reason as sethypooh). I normally bet this turn, but when I do, I'm quite happy...

Re: 2/4 river decision:
Well, with no reads this is hard, but if villain is a decent player, he probably calls mostly if you are beat. *Maybe* a 7 with a good kicker calls if he is the suspicious type, and *maybe* 88 or 99...

Re: Eh River Decision
I would consider betting the turn here, which would possibly make the river easier to play. But on the river I'd fold. Curiosity/paying for info is irrelevant because there has already been a call,...

Re: LO.50/1 How horrible is the post flop play?
In a slightly tighter game, I don't always raise pf here from EP (though after a few callers, yes), because with this hand you want customers to pad the pot. If you are suited, then this play (i.e.,...

Re: how are you playing this hand UTG?
As a wise man once said "It is better to be loved than feared in Omaha Hi/Lo." Limp. Create love. (You might create even more love is you raised, but that's a losing play IMO. Limping is probably...

Re: 2/4 LO8 Loose flop calls? River raise?
Given your description of the players, I agree with trying to get a lot of money in the pot there, and probably I'd go for the C/R to do it. But you have to be pretty darned sure about the way they...
