Hi SteamBoatin,
Yeah, in Omaha you're not worried about flush cards higher that your made flush. Since they have to play two cards, they either already have it or they don't and it's not coming. ...

Re: 80/160 straight on the turn
My thinking would be to do what I would do if I had the Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif. So check-raise the turn. It would be really hard for him to call the cr without the Q...

Re: AKo - Call a turn raise and fold to river bet
I think calling the turn check raise and folding the river is bad. Unless you have a read on the two players behind suggesting one of them might raise the river.

Re: MY first O8 post. Tear it apart.

Thanks for all the great input.

Re: Need help with this TPTK decision on the River
The only reasonable draw he could be on is a flush draw and he's got plenty of overlay to call through the turn.
