FLOPING 3 PAIR

[dazzlinlenou]

I play mostly limit holdem at cardclubs, and no limit cash games at a local home game. I have recently gotten really into online, especially 6 handed Pot Lim Omaha. I almost always buy in for the min (about $80 or $40) following most of Rolf Slotbooms ideas of how to wail on online Omaha games. Though Rolf probably would not like my short buy in a short handed game. (I probably play a few more hands then Rolf De MEESTER!) I have been a bit blown away by the effectiveness of this short buy strat after 10,000 hands. I still feel very lost in a few Omaha situations. When you flop 3 pair. With or without a possible straight? How do you guys play it? Like a set? Faster then a set? Slower? Against top set, or even middle we're almost dead. But How do you guys play it? I tend to play it even faster then a set, especially if there's a straight possible, why? Well one I am nuts! Two, I play lots of hands once i get some chips if i can limp. And people like to pay me. But most likly i feel like Ive been getting lucky and filling up my 3 pair a ton, which convinces me to play it again the same way. Anyways how do you guys like to play 3 pair?

learning to play Omaha:

1. OMG this game is so ez!!! Today I won 6 buyins!!!! NO1 knows how 2 play this game, Fish giving u there stacks all the time!!!! Why r so many fools playing NL when u can have higher winraet at PLO???

2. This game is all luck, what's the point in getting it in with the best hand if the fish are going to suck out 48% of the time, because everyone knows it's just about getting your stack in on a coinflip??????

3. ????

I still feel a hint of #2 tugging at my ear whenever I run bad though ;p

Good Omaha players are not just shoving there money in on coin flips with nothing in the pot. Theres often a ton of money in the pot already so even if youre getting 48%, if you play well and there's some real money in the middle already, you gotta get that money in with a coin flip, or even better, when one of you 2 jokers is drawing to 2 and a half outs! Ok, back to my first question. Any real Omaha players have any insight into how to play 3 pair?
