Yes, you have a backdoor low draw, but its counterfietable, only hits about 20% of the time, and only wins half or a quarter of the pot. It amounts to about 10% pot equity at most. So, if you are behind on high, it's not enough to turn a fold into a call or a call into a raise. In hindsight, it seems that your best chance to scoop this pot would have been to call the flop and turn, and bet the pot on the river once the low and possible straight hit. Now he no longer has the nuts, can only win half the pot by calling a pot sized bet, and will get scooped with any straight. Badger's advice about having money left to bet a scare card on the river seems to apply here. |

40 buyins? That's a LOT of alcohol.

This is what the .01-.02 tables are for.

Good thing I fired up a couple $2k PLO8 tables and ended up 2k in the black for that drunken session though Look for a repeat performance tonight, I'll post a trip report tomorrow if it goes down |
Re: how about YOU berate ME so THIS never happens again
For someone who knows so much about PLO8 it appears that that knowledge is not transferable to NLHE (particularly after being distilled.)
