Default I built a pot, now i have bottom set

.25/.50 on UB full table. this is my 3rd hand.

I am the button with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and $49.

Preflop - utg folds, everyone limps to me maybe a couple posted who knows, i raise to 2, everyone calls. that's right - everyone

Flop (~18) - K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

check, check, utg+1 bets 2.50, utg+2 min-raises to 5, fold, fold, next guy goes allin for 7.50 total, next guy goes all-in for 36.50, i'm up next and do what? the players yet to act after me all have ~50 except the sb who has 22

omaha is fun, right?

Easy fold...although I would ask the winner for my $2 back.

Really easy fold, and this is exactly why you raise on the button, being able to act last in a huge pot with all the information.

This information tells you, you've had 3 shows of strength in front of you.

You don't close the action, you have a 100BB stack.

You have bottom set, and your redraw is toast. The board is very coordinated. The very few times bottom set is good on the flop it will be barely have any equity anyway as you'll be dodging half the deck.

Unless you have reads or prior history you just gotta give em credit for having you beat.

Especially because of the staggering amount of times you will have A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on this flop and still have all that action before you (at these stakes)...

Doesn't happen nearly as often at micro-level hold 'em

PF raises at UB (especially at these stakes) will be called by any holdings...tread carefully post-flop.

easy fold, unless you know everyone else just has draws, it is very likely ur drawing to 1 out.
