was that a typo or was it 5 card omaha?
never seen it on the net.
Oh and you played it terribly, shoulda give it up on the flop, NEVER EVER chase a hand other than the nuts and ALWAYS assume someone has the nuts at that time.

Post by: ifm on September 11, 2005, 12:45:15 AM
7 card stud also, is that always limit, i've never seen otherwise.
How can anyone play limit omaha? you gotta be the luckiest sod alive to win one of those, you just can't get anyone out of a pot ???


Title: Re: what no omaha?

Title: Re: what no omaha?
Post by: RFC on September 11, 2005, 12:51:17 AM
yes

ok mate fair enough ive only plated omaha a few times

and still trying to get to grips with the best and muppet hands

think i will stick to the play money tables to learn

do you know a good site that dont have many muppet tables i can learn on

or go for the very low limit cash tables // limit, pot limit, or no limit

the best suggestion would be much appreciated as i would like to lesrn this game without any bank damage


thx william

RFC don't even consider playing omaha for real money until you read up on it mate, it's a highly profitable game when you know what you're doing but a murderous one if you don't.
Have a read of Ben Grundy's blog, he does it for a living and has some horrendous sessions at times:-

be very careful

study the game as cheaply as possible

its a great game both cash and tourney

the swings in the cash game are outrageous, I lost my entire crypto bankroll

last night when I decided to play with the big boys >:(

one minute I was miles ahead 2 hands later where i was 90%+ favourite after the flop both times

I lost the lot >:( >:( >:( to hands that shouldn't have even seen the flop :-[

when playing PLO online try and steer clear of the big UK sites as thats where the sharks hang out looking for sports betting fish the bigger offshore sites like party and stars will pay better in the long run
