Title: Omaha -2 Hands Post by: Jaydeaa on April 20, 2008, 12:31:32 PM Friday night, we finally got a 6 handed cash game of omaha going down in Southend must be the 2nd time we were playing in 3 years.
We played a round of each PLO - PLO H/L - 6 CARD PLO (High only) Just wondering what people thought of these hands, for reference we were playing 1/2 and all players sat down with 200 and a few rebuys. HAND 1 PLO Hole Cards: 7d Ad 9h Kh (button) 2 limpers and a check Flop Cards: 8d Td Kc SB: 6 BB: Call ME: Call (is there anything wrong with this in anyones eyes (im very new to omaha and want to learn) do i try and get heads up with top pair/kicker etc and raise pot or do i call hoping to hit the straight/flush draw and get paid off? Turn Card: 2c SB: 15 BB: 35 ME: Call (is this wrong calling with a nut flush draw and up n down straight draw) SB: Folds River Card: Jd (completes my straight and nut flush) BB: Check (now obviously i guess he is putting me on a flush, and im not getting paid, so at this point the pot is 109, now what kind of bet am I making here to get paid or do i just bet out pot thinking im not getting paid) ME: 54 (1/2) pot BB: Folds but shows nut straight, and says "please show the flush" Have I dont anything wrong here? have i played this wrong? could I have played it any other way? and was I wrong for not showing him the flush? 2nd HAND PLO H/L Im still getting used to this game both live and online, so bear with me Me in the small blind HOLE CARDS: Ac 2c 5h 3h (folded to BUTTON) BUTTON: 7 ME: Call BB: Makes it 20 BUTTON: Call ME: Call PRE FLOP POT (60) FLOP COMES: 3c Jd Jc ME: Check BB: Check BUTTON: Check TURN COMES: 5d Me: Check BB: 40 Button: 100 Me: (fold) s this wrong, when im drawing to a flush and straight and nut low? and do i call for value hoping im going to outdraw someone?

Deffo right not to show at end, don't want him to feel good folding straight.
Hand 2, Nearly always bad to try to hit a flush on a paired flop so no trouble folding there. Title: Re: Omaha -2 Hands Post by: boldie on April 20, 2008, 04:49:22 PM OK..Hand 2 you played fine..easy fold for me with that action on the turn..
Hand 1; Raise pre-flop..you have the button..a half decent hand..use it. Bet the flop as well. As Redsimon says..noone without the flush will pay you off if you hit it. Again, you have position..use it and bet it.

The first hand is a 100% must raise pre, on the flop you should again be raising. PLO is not a game to be passive in. 2nd hand, fire the turn yourself |
