Sorry about the messy post. Just cant get the hang of quoting

Hi

Thanks for your comment fellas.

.

OK this was your SB, right? (or the button would be on you in this set up)




FWIW - I don't raise that flop.  I am happy to call and peel of another card that is a very draw heavy board we could be up against a bigger set, or indeed as you say nut flush with a combo draw could have a wrap try and get it in on a non scary turn card is what I'd do.

Sorry I was not clear on this. I was the button on this hand. First time I have posted one of these. I would not have check raise with a hand as week as 2nd trips on this board.

Like the thinking with the call and push on a blank turn think I will give that one a try and see how it works for me

You have a big hand pre-flop...

really ?

I agree, I have a nice drawing hand pre fop, but I dont think the limpers are going any where if i rase, Im mostly looking to play it off the flop here. Could be wrong but thats genraly the way I play.

yawn, just get it in on the flop and then remember PLO is not a tournament game!

Sorry to boar you. I disagree. Mtt PLO is my most profitable game,  ok the variants are high but there are ways to play this format that yield consistant returns there for I think its worth analysing this sort of situation

I have been playing profitable mtt Omaha for almost a year now, however situations like this one keep occurring and I would be very gratefully for any comments or advice on the way I played this hand specifically, and how to generally approach these situations as I am a little unclear about what the best way to play, especially where there are the other factors that influence mtts such as tournament life.

In this situation I know the Villain to be a good player, more than capable of making a move, and put her on the nut flush draw from the way she bet. My all in raise was trying to give her the wrong odds to draw.

There are 17 people left in the mtt and 9 are paid. If I win this hand I am just about chip leader, if i losse then i am left with just 4 big blinds.

The % are 52.81% to me and 47.18 to my enemy

Am I right to get my chips in with the best of it and ask them to pay for there draw here, or is there better long term profit in calling here and trying to push them off on the next street ?

Thanks
