Re: Be Careful What You Wish For...(PLO8)
Call, you have nut-low and nut str8. It's a shot to 3/4 the players. You could be 1/3'd for the low if one player has the flush and all have the low.
120/2 = 60 high & 60 for low at worst you get...

Re: 0.25/.50 LO8: nut flush on paired board
The down and dirty answer.
Calling is a small error and cost you one big bet if you are wrong.
Folding the best hand is a big error & could cost you 9.5BB.
This could be the difference in having...

Re: micro PLo8 question from beginner
You are drawing for 1/2 the pot. You have a pair of [Q]'s.
Fold is correct. You have no counterfiet protection for your low. The action indicates more than one NLD is out there. It's time to...

Re: FL 1-2 Nut low, no high draw
If there is a lot of action, you'd usually break-even 4 handed. On rare occasions, you'd get 1/3 of the low for a slight lost. I've been playing O8b since 2000 & can count on my fingers the number...

Re: 2/4 LO8 BB flop straight
You hit the nuts on the flop. Sometimes, in Omaha, having the nut str8 on the flop is an "omen of doom." You have a faults since of security (relating back to hold'em play).

Re: This is completely standard, right? 3 dollar rebuy on stars
It depends! Seriously!
What range of hands do you think the UTG player would make this play with? [AA], [KK], [QQ], [JJ], [TT], {AK], & maybe [As with Q,J, or T] or [KQs].
Generally, a player...

Re: One day I will learn how to play 10/20 LO8
In CO, FTA you are basically trying to steal the blinds and/or buy the BTN. If you get a flop as you've seen in this hand, you are basically drawing for half the pot (trying to get your money back)....

Pre-flop your [As,2s,8c,Ts] is a pretty weak holding:
(a) You have no back-up to the NLD,

(c) [T,8] is a middle gap and most of ur str8s will not be nuts...
