Top two, weak low draw, PLO8
http://www.pokerhand.org/?800155
-I usually don't play PLO $600. -So far on the table I've been limp calling and folding flops, raising PF and not c-betting flops. So I may have a weak/scared money image on the table. -I don't anything about villain. Here, I limp and get raised from the SB. Flop gives me top two and a bad low draw. I feel like I didn't think enough before I got my money in - I was just thinking, he has 2-4 or just a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] x [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I'm feeling that I should've folded to his three-bet, or just folded to his bet (?) I'll post results later. |

Re: Top two, weak low draw, PLO8
DaveBReal, that guy's a huge fish...Should be EZ money...
But seriously BuklaH is probably the top PLO8 player on Stars (what was he on Party, GASSSS_U?), never played with him, just watched him a lot to try to learn...Saw him sitting with like $9500 one nite on a PLO8 $1000 table...Dave would probably be able to comment better on his tendancies, but this isn't a Mustafa situation where he has a set...I think this guy could 3-bet with a wide variety, including a set of As and a low or a super-wrap with a straigh and flush draw... You sure know how to go up against the big boys, don't you? |

Tough spot but two pair with a flush draw, wheel draw out there isn't a spot to go to war with.

Usually to my detriment [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Since not many responses have been posted so far, I'll post the results, and hopefully more responses will come in: Buklah held A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Turn was a 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], River was a 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I ended up scooping a very nice $1600 pot. I think this may be his reasoning: 1) I could be raising a 2-4 nut low draw, or wheel draw, just like I thought he was raising. 2) He may be be able to push me off a two pair hand (?) 3) Just like me, he can't just call and go to the turn with any money behind. If I catch a low, he's getting freerolled. 4) I may have a flush draw also, in which case his jack-high and his two pair may make him a favorite. Still, overall I don't think his three-bet/push was good. I don't think that he has much fold equity against me, when I have 2/5 of my stack in already with my pot sized raise. Also, even against a wheel draw (without a flush draw) it's close to 50-50. But again, given the other post here, he may have a tendency to push mediocre hands hard.. Thoughts? Like I said, I don't play this high usually, so maybe more the players are very aggressive like him. |

Re: Top two, weak low draw, PLO8
I'm with you, I don't usually play even close to that high...When ever I try to chip up and play higher I find myself floundering because my opponents at the lower levels are so bad that I find I'm still trying to push against opponents that are making far less mistakes...
