1/3 2+2 Game hand
I suck at Omaha, I admit this freely, but I could use some advice on this hand:
8 player mixed 2+2 game. Current game is PLOmaha hi. 2 limpers to my button and I limp with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. The game is playing passive preflop I don't expect a raise out of the blinds. SB complete BB check. Flop Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Pot ($15). I am about $240 deep. Checks to me, before MP checks he looks at me and says "just us left"? There are 3 players between us that folded preflop. I bet pot. Folds back to MP who looks at me and checkraises pot. What should I have done? I thought for awhile and called the $45. Turn is a K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] MP leads pot ($135). Now what? He has like $30 left behind. |

Re: 1/3 2+2 Game hand
Is MP playing crazy or normal? What's the worst hand he would do this with?
I think I'd probly fold to the flop c/r. He's going to fire the turn and he doesn't have much behind. At best you're drawing to the flush and str8 if he has a bare set, but I think you're rarely going to be drawing live to both. More likely he has JT with nfd or QQ with str8/str8draw/fd. |

Check the flop and see the free card, then when he bets out, call the turn card.

[/ QUOTE ] Horrible advice, there is nothing "perilous" about checking a nut straight to the guy on the button. You're obviously not aware of how many players on the button bet any draw in omaha if it's checked to them. |

I'm not offering any advice here, just commenting on perceived mindset. |

No, we are talking about poker players playing poker. Every poker player knows the button likes to bet no matter what they have.

Troll, it's not often I agree with Ribbo but your advice in general is [censored]. You need to log some more hands and play a little higher before you start questioning more experienced players.
