In an unraised pot with many opponents and only 2 nut-outs, very cautiously indeed.

I'd be inclined to check fold.

Perhaps calling a teeny bet due to the backdoor outs, but nothing substantial.

I would go along with Tank. Your not in a very strong position because of the number of people who limped into the pot and ur hand isnt that strong anyway. A five high flush is unlikely to hold up so you are aiming for no more hearts but a card to complete your straight.

To be honest, I think the pre-flop call was pretty loose and weak but thats just my opinion.

Ram-jam thankyou mam then.

Bet raise re-rasie, you have more outs than ins and ample scoop potential.

if this hand wasnt a hi/lo then i would have folded.....even at hi/lo i would have folded with so many other callers.

I think it's fine to call pre-flop with this hand in High or Hi-Lo

I am slightly bemused about being criticised for playing this hand. I'd play this hand in a High only game too.

Sorry if it came across as critical, wasnt meant to be. Just not my sort of hand in a omaha high game, but i think thats because i am not very good at omaha and really need the nuts or close to the nuts to call any sort of big bet.

The other day playing omaha hi/lo I folded pre flop a hand with two aces in it cause there had been a raise and re-raise and i had no idea where i was so listening to me might be foolish.
