Go bust here every time?

[luckyjimm]

I can't see how I don't always go bust here. I don't tend to raise much pre-flop in a ring game (if I do it's with 5678 or 9TJQ type hands then decide what to do on the flop)and even if I had raised, my opponent would be calling. Anyone try to keep the pot smaller, with the flopped nuts and draw to the second nuts? I think you have to play it hard. It just seems like one of those unfortunate Omaha hands designed to take all your money:

Standard. The AQJT 2-diamond board presents the possibility that foe is freerolling with Kdxd, but not enough to make a spit of difference with <100BB stacks.

You have 2 pair as well incase u didnt notice. This is just one of those unlucky hands. You have 2nd nut flush draw, top 2 pair, and the current Nut straight. There is only 1 card to come on the turn, I can't think of a better time to get all the money in with a 100BB stack.
This is just one of those evils of omaha variance hands

Yes, I agree it's pretty standard. I've won and lost in much sicker ways. A few hands later, having refilled, I got this one which was particularly sweet. Who can blame him for pushing the flop? He was thinking metagame....
