3/4 Hand #1
Party 3/6 9 handed... SB and BB hadn't been involved in many pots up to this point, but I had only been at the table a short while so I couldn't be sure if they were tight players or not
I open limp in EP with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], loose MP calls, sb completes, bb checks. Flop: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (4 players, 4 sb) Checked around Turn: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players, 4 sb) SB checks, BB bets, I call, MP calls, SB folds River: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players, 5BB) BB bets, I raise, MP 3-bets, BB calls, I call. Comments appreciated...

Re: 3/4 Hand #1
hi, keep in mind that i don't play any o8 at all,
but i'd fold preflop. flop good. i would fold the turn. you're playing for half the pot in an incredibly tiny pot and you'd hate for it to get raised. i wouldn't raise the river, i would try to go for overcalls. you're playing for half the pot and a raise could fold out a high hand that may overcall or a weaker low hand and you may be getting quartered.

Re: 3/4 Hand #1
in omaha 8 this is a very weak starting hand. all he has ia A2 and a suited A... this hand is good online up to 1/2, no higher.
bottom line is: he's playing for half the pot, and in a tight game, probably 1/4 of the pot. zero counterfeit proection, and nothing beyond a suited ace for high. without 3 or more limpers ahead, it's an easy fold, IMO.

Re: 3/4 Hand #1
Based on the play at 3/6, I'd be hard pressed to say that even just a suited A2 is very weak. You're correct in that there is no real counterfeit protection, but there is a high opportunity present (albeit not phenomenal). With enough people in the pot, I don't see this hand as unprofitable.
But that's me.

Re: 3/4 Hand #1
As far has hands I'd play with UTG, this is pretty weak but I think it's still profitable to play on most Party 3-6 tables. I play flop and river the same.
I'd raise the turn very often here. Getting MP to fold would clean up ALOT of outs for you and vastly improve you chances of getting half or scooping. The big difference here is that vs. one opponent some of the followign may win, but vs. two its much less likely: Your 99 might win high Hitting A,7,2 might win high with 2 pair Hitting A,2 might let your 7 win low Even if you run into trouble, hitting a 9 or 3,5,6,7,8 probably wins you something. Add the folding equity, and the fact that your $6 bet might help you win half at $15 or even all at $30 and i think raise is best. --Greg

I agree (not that my agreeing makes it a good post ...). BB gives you a chance to make this a heads-up pot. Given that it doesn't look like anyone else has anything, and you've got a nut-low draw, you should take it.
