Ok situation. Round of each with a lot of fish who are sitting deep. Blinds 2/2. My omaha experience is limited but I think I am fairly competent.

I am up to 900 from a bi on 100 (from .50/1 game). I'm playing solid cos I have Mitch to my left. I usually avoid these games at all costs but w/e.

Tikay limps utg. I limp 556A no suits. yeh shit hand. Much pre. Live cash. It's two yellow chips. GTFO nits.

Mitch makes it 10 (cos he hates limping) 5 callers before it's back to me so I stick the £8 in.

Flop is  5c 7c 4d iirc (deffo two clubs). So pretty decent flop me.

Grandad however leads for 60. I call. Mitch folds. Guy who's shortstacking and peeling loads but doesn't seem to be getting out of line jams all in for 185.

Terrible donko asks for a count playing around 1200 and flats. Tikay now jams all in for around 650.

I should?

jeez at least pretend its 556A double suited! hearts and spades ftw

Very easy fold for you.

Boring, nit, whatever but fold pre- you should play very tight in 9 handed PLO- hands that people think are good, ain't- can crush the game by playing like 20/20

looks like a v.easy fold.

Dubai- not arguing it's a fold pre. I know it is and fwiw for most of the night I was playing very solid

WWYD now? There was a bit of a discussion about it after. I'm fairly certain I made the right decision

If you had top set and backdoor fl draw might be different but looks easy fold

What absolute butchery.

Fold quickly pls.

Yes also fold pre.

its a complete fistpump fold OTF, not even remotely close, we COULD just about have the right equity to stack off in the very best circumstances, but could just as easily be drawing to 1 out.

I'm actually hating my life calling the £60 lead, obv going to call it tho, although if you folded it wouldnt have been the worst thing ever as you aren't closing the action, will HAVE to fold to a turn barrell unless you wanna get into bluffing some CLUB rivers and we are going to hate all turn cards that aren't 5's or 4's.

the initial entry into the pot is marginal at the very best, calling the £8 is just an absolutely not an option imo.

FYP

butchery on the flop too?

Tikay limps UTG - you have shit next to act and Mitch behind you. Could be the clearest fold ever.

I think all the omaha experts have commented.

I folded ofc which I'm sure was right as Tikay and the all in player both had 68 no clubs. Turn was obv a 4 and I would have scooped but that wasn't the reason for the post. Reason was cos a couple of omaha experts- Mitch and Terry said they would get it in ;)

Have no idea what the mark had but he was claiming the bottom end of the straight.

Just to be clear I know pre flop is a fold. My OP was a little tongue in cheek.

I'd be VERY worried that the 1200 guy had 77. this is trouble for you even it if happens once in 20, because we're dealing with such tight equitys that every occurring that takes it from being marginally profitable/losing to costing you £900 is really really costly.

I know this sounds kinda spastic but full ring PLO is all about big cards, hands with pairs under 7's/8's and many cards lower than an 7 is just gonna damage you bad

Calling Tikay's bet is kinda mandatory but him leading into everyone is pretty strong. If a shorter stack gets in a flush draw type hand/straight behind you, you'll have to fold.

So basically I don't mind the flop call but hate it at the same time. The reason we don't play hands like these in PLO is because they play so badly and get us in lots of trouble. Reverse implied odds etc.

Tikay & the other guy are seldom gonna have no redraws between them. When Tikay puts all his chips in he normally has 7768 with clubs here.

I may have mentioned to you before that I don't play live PLO anymore because it's always 9-handed and therefore ridic boring. The correct way to play is like an absolute nit.

Haha  rotflmfao


Which was impossible given your 6, Tikays 68xx and the other guys 668x

Lol@him

tytyty everyone. Noted. It's not often I tread these waters but when I next do I will be sure to take on everyone sage advice and thus will not limp with shit

*promise

8handed at dtd

Anything 6 and over is a nit fest

Yeh he was awful. Mitch said he'd improved lol.

same shit, more than 6 is a pile of bollocks.

pretty sure i'm losing for like 25 striaght PLO sessions LIVE this year.
