Overpair and straight draw
I'm trying to learn omaha and need advice on situations such as these...
MIKEY22888 ($130.35 in chips) PIGFARMER1 ($294.15 in chips) SRSPOKER1980 ($57.95 in chips) HERO ($56.65 in chips) BABE88 ($119.25 in chips) PIGFARMER1 - Posts small blind $0.25 SRSPOKER1980 - Posts big blind $0.50 *** POCKET CARDS *** Dealt to HERO [Kd Kh 10h Jc] HERO - Raises $1.75 to $1.75 BABE88 - Folds MIKEY22888 - Calls $1.75 PIGFARMER1 - Calls $1.50 SRSPOKER1980 - Folds *** FLOP *** [Qs 3c 10d] PIGFARMER1 - Checks HERO - Bets $4.50 MIKEY22888 - Raises $9 to $9 PIGFARMER1 - Raises $37.25 to $37.25 HERO????? Is this normally a fold? I'm having trouble in these situations, especially OOP.

Re: Overpair and straight draw
Fold like you're holding 2222.
You have a weak made hand (KK) and a moderate draw (open end straight draw). In Hold Em. this combination is a monster. In Omaha it's nothing special at all. If this was heads up, you could argue that villain either has a better made hand or a better draw, but probably not both. If you throw in some fold equity, you could potentially consider a raise. Maybe. It would be player dependent. However, this is multi-way and both your opponents have expressed a lot of love for this flop. In order to be justified continuing, your opponents must either both have a draw or both have a better made hand. If either of these is the case, you have enough equity to go all in. Against two better made hands with random side cards, you're flipping 3-ways (with co-ordinated side cards it's a lot worse). Against 2 big draws (really, only AKJx) you're about 50/25/25. However, it is more likely that one of them has a better draw and the other has a better made hand. If this is the case, your equity is terrible and you must fold because you'll be on the bad end of a 20/30/50 pot.
