well, for one thing omaha is pretty different in that if theyll play for one bet theyll play for two (generally) (or in this case if theyll play for maniacs 2 bets theyll probably play for isolaters 3 bets).


but i think the main thing is that this guy was pretty predictable and so if i wanted to check raise for value, i check to him and raise (him and 1 or 2 others), and if i want to thin the field (this was like his main theme) then when everybody checked to him (us) then i would bet out, he would usually raise, and it was hard for people with say a small pair and 4th low draw to call.


of course every once in a while when i decided to check raise for value he would get wily and check it through, but oh well.
