I have started to play a lot of cash Omaha and despite some swings remain around breakeven for the last 6 weeks. I would like some thoughts on the following hands. In each case I am tring to slow play the nuts to get paid and losing to horrible river cards. These 2 hands occued on the same table within 20 mins.
Hand 1 : out of position I flop the full house, check the flop, do a milking reraise on the turn (how he can call I have no idea) and move all in on the river.
Hand 2 : Out of position I flop the up/ down str8 and the nut flush draw. I call the flop bet as I have enough outs. I hit nut str8 on turn and still have nut flush draw but check to induce a bet. Both players all in and I am rivered to a bigger str8.
The actual hands are posted below thoughts please.....
