How'd I do? PP NL50 6-max

[Raiser]

I don't have the hand history, so this is from memory. Villain in this hand is a little loose before and after the flop, but is okay in general.

Our stacks are both around $60.

I get Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on the button. UTG folds, Villain calls, CO calls, I call, SB folds, BB knocks.

Flop is Q94r. Checked to me, I bet $3.50, villain is only caller. Pot is ~$11.

Turn is 8 completing rainbow. Villain checks, I check behind.

River is K. Villain bets $8, I call.

Do I suck? Who plays this differently?

Thanks in advance.

I think its alright but why no bet on the turn?

[AncientPC]

Bet the turn, either bet again or check behind on the river.

[Wayfare]

I play it exactly the same, although I am not happy to see him betting the river.

EDIT: Actually, I probably fire $8 on the turn.

I raise limpers with QJs on the button...
2 limpers, make it 6 total.

Yep, raise it up preflop. Pot it on the flop, and scoop it up.

yeah, i'm a bastard like that too.

Sure is fun playing omaha holding AKQJ when everyone else only gets two cards though...

I don't play 6-max, but with QJsuited you want a lot of people in the pot. Why raise preflop to stop this? Would you raise with 66 here? If not, I don't understand raising with QJsuited.

Tons of good things happen:
1. You have tons of stealing equity if it's checked to you
2. You can see a 4 card flop when people check to the raiser, if it's convenient
3. Your hand is well disguised if you do happen to hit a big flop
4. You're increasing the stakes when you have position, which means every profitable move being in position is 'more +'

Plus, depending on your table image, you could pick up a bunch of blinds uncontested, which happens quite a bit.
And, if you show it, you'll get action on your later hands.
But I dont like showing, because I only get big hands like once every 80 hands or so! [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
