Re: Things I think I have learned about PLO8

Re: Trips - The Optimal Way to Play a Set
Top trips and top set aren't even the same animal. When you flop top set, you are hoping an opponent has flopped a set.
When you flop top trips, you are trying to figure out whether someone has...

Re: Thin draws and large pot odds
You have great odds for a preflop call if you are all-in. In fact, you have just slightly less equity than typically calling hands in a loose game. The problem is that the hand is almost impossible...

I hate Omaha. I was in a freeroll NLO8 tournament today for two hours, and I never had the nut hand in either direction. I had A23x three times, A2xx four times, and I never had so much as a...

Re: Rock, Paper, Scissors
If four opponents all hold A234r, 5555 is a mortal lock for high. This despite A234 being a damn good hand and 5555 being the 4th worst of all possible starters.

Re: Can I fold here?
Tough spot! You can't expect that villain is betting the flop with 67xx with spades, since you hold the nut spade. If villain has 67, he also has A2 or A3. Otherwise, he can't call from UTG. Aw67 has...

Re: Live low limit 08
The lower the limit, the easier it is to overcome the rake. At the Taj 3/6 level, you only need a modicum of skill an discipline to beat the rake handily.
The real question is whether you can...
