Will he bluff a busted draw?

[Lafortezza]

Yes but he'd also pot an overpair so I wasn't sure which river line was best.

I like c/c on the end

[EvanJC]

it looks like i'm minding position, but w/e. I'm going to give it another 5 or 10k hands and call it an omaha career if my results don't improve. down 15 buyins to start my 25c omaha career? bleh.

Now that I see your full stats, I think you are raising too much preflop from the first four positions at six max tables. (SB, BB, UTG, UTG+1). I could imagine a good rule for a starting player would be to never raise from these positions. These 6 max games usually have 3-4 people seeing each flop.

As I mentioned above, without seeing actual hands, I could imagine a situation where you are winning quite a few small pots up front, but then losing big ones.

I bet you really really have to tighten up postflop. One thing you could do is to consider this a game where everyone is dealt 4 cards with a flop. Real play begins on the turn.

And really start hand reading, which will keep you from getting bored playing fewer hands.

If you want to continue with playing a lot of hands for preflop raises, then you'll need to become a TheRempel disciple or look into what other very aggro preflop LAGs do. I think this is a lot more difficult though.

ATTN ALL CANADIANS AND EUROS

I haven't confirmed this but apparently neteller expressed approval of allow us players to xfer to non-yanks who then deposit onto gaming sites. So caveat emptor but my point is that you guys could make great extra money doing this xfers for people and taxing them. I could already refer a few people to you if you are interested. PM me if you want.

I don't like that hand much wazz.. you know you're up against 33 and you could easily be splitting outs. With only 30 committed I'm tempted to fold when it comes back to me. I just played around on twodimes and it looks against ranges that you're getting even money at best.

[RoundTower]

everyone who has played on Full Tilt knows how annoying the railbirds can be. I always figured they were worthless parasites who should be ignored and certainly not encouraged. Not even worthless parasites like professional poker players, the bad kind of parasites. However I was pleasantly surprised today to find one who was prepared to make a little effort and not just spam 100 windows. And how could I refuse this guy?
