You generally don't raise much in early position with deep money. With real shallow money, of course pot KK88. KK88 is not that strong particularly unsuited, and I would generally limp it in early position.

These are all junk hands, worth a complete in the SB.

BTW, I can advise, but I got knocked out near the end of the first hour in the PLHE part.

I would say that KT67 was definately the best of the 3.

KT76ds is pretty gappy. Two holdem hands do not make an Omaha hand. Also, you want to be drawing to a nut flush. AQJ, QJ9, J98, 985, 854, and 543 makes 6 straights. JT98 is 20 straights. The hand may be playable to limp behind in late position.

A655s has some value for a suited ace, but low pairs are practically worthless and lead to losing hands. 987, 874, 743, and 432 makes 4 straights. Really not playable.

AA = nuts

so you're reraising pre always w AA regardless of your other 2?

[/ QUOTE ]
No more than I would a double-suited wrap hand. I would always reraise a strong AA or a double-suited AA. The shallower the money gets, and especially in a tournament, I'm more inclined to reraise a bare AA because more people will get it in with bare KK or even QQ.

One tiny addition: once the stacks get shallow, don't instafold AAAx. You're a slight favorite over anything, obviously, but it's so easy to just see the trips and fold when this is actually a pretty good preflop shoving hand.

One of my favorite plays especially in rebuys is if you have a less than medium stack, kinda smaller stack,
and the table goes nuts raise, reraise, call type of thing, consider calling with a good gambling hand like JT86 double suited, the emphasis on double suited.
