AAKK ds Omaha Donkament Beat

[supersoldier]

Home tourney, this is the second game of two. 6 people start, 1 round of HE, 1 round of NL Omaha high. First blind level, 5/10 (t1500 to start). 1 Player busted, I have about 1700. I am CO. UTG limps.

I look down at A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], and push all in just so I can table my hand after everybody folds.

Folds to UTG, who instacalls and turns over 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. (Has about 1650 chips)

Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Everybody laughs, and I ask him how he calls off all his chips with one of the worst possible starting hands you can have. He says:

"Omaha is all about sucking out, duh"

Then the guy to my left tells me, in all seriousness, "He was getting pot odds."

NL Omaha is not poker.

Next time you might want to add NL Triple Draw High to the mix.

It's Omaha. You were like 50/50 anyway, stop whining.
