Default (LC) The mixed games on FTP are WOOT!

Played about 3 hours of "HA" (PL Holdem/Omaha mixed) last night and I gotta say the games were juicy as hell.

Lots of HE players who didn't know squat about Omaha. And the HE players were generally terrible anyway. I was at the .50/1 tables (mostly because I still kinda suck at Omaha [but not as much as the opposition] and didn't want to play Omaha for $200 stacks) and at the 6-max tables there were usually 4 donks and a TAG who played way too tightly and couldn't adjust to deep stacks (which are easy to come by in the action-packed Omaha rounds [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]).

My favorite hand of the night was Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the button, on a K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] flop. We got all in and my opponents with JJxx and KKJx (poor guy with JJ didn't even have an out, lol) -- neither one had a spade draw -- berated me for "sucking out" and "going all-in on a draw".

Lol wrapaments.

I would not be happy at all about TT here and would almost never bet OOP. What turn cards do you like?

Also if xx doesn't add anything to your hand you should probably fold preflop.

mixed games at this point are very juicy imo. esp the smallish stakes tables 50/1 and 25c/50c...

And you have exactly 1.5x times as many cards in HA, on average, as in HE. This is not an accident. Do you see why?
