Re: Another interesting 2-4 hand

If the river is a J, I make the continuation bet on the river. My pair of 8's can't possibly be good anymore so I fold to a river raise here.

Re: Wraparound draw LO8 .5/1

Bullet,

I hear what you are saying and agree with the vast majority of it but there is something more to these wrap around straight draws when they hit.

I haven't entirely thought this through...

Re: 10/20 limit - totally lost in the Wynn mixed game

Wow...what a great way to start out your O8 career.

At first, I thought his preflop raise was just because he's "bloody British" and these American's-can't-possibly-know-how-to-play-this-game, but...

Re: Wraparound draw LO8 .5/1

Boolean,

This is a tough hand.

If you want to see the flop with this hand (and I think it's ok to see the flop with this hand) you need to have the discipline to fold this flop even though it...

Re: Reckless? or a good push? PLO8

This was an interesting hand.

I was not the hero in the example. I folded preflop.

But the hero is a 2+2er that I have played a bunch with and think very highly of his game.

Re: Limp...then bet pot? PLO8 $25

Yeah, that's the kind of betting that I would have prefered if it was A A 4 or better to me.

Re: PLO8 tournament - shortstacked hand selection

Sixfour,

I'm pretty sure the answer is not "any four" but more importantly, the question I would ask is, "how far away from the money am I?"

Would I push with JJ52? Probably not. But I could...

Re: PLO8 200 Short Handed Hand #1

Jorge,

I can't think of a flop that would come with a hand as strong as this that I wouldn't pot it on the flop with A A 4 in a heads up game.

I understand your thinking on all streets, but sometimes you have to fold in this game when you get a bad card...even when the pot is big. There are plenty of times to bluff...but this isn't one of...

Re: Preflop Suggestions

Baxter,

Your final paragragh gets to the heart of the problem with playing limit O8 vs. pot limit O8 online. The pre flop rasies at 2/4 and 3/6 are generally not enough to make money when you...

Re: PL25 hand - would you fold this low draw?

I would have folded the turn bet. You have no prospects of winning the high side so you are essentially risking 4.50 to win around a dollar. I think it's fair to assume one of your two opponents...

Re: First PLO8, $25, jam?

Good push. There are a lot of river cards that will give you a scoop even if you are not ahead right now.

Good point of course.

Re: PLO8 General Thought

I agree completely.

I'm willing to lay down very big drawing hands when I have very little money in the pot because I know there will be situations during my session where I am way ahead.

I would fold in this situation unless I had opponents that were very close to "all in".

Re: PLO8 50 - Anyone raise river to get High hand to fold?

Actually, I like the change up. Not how I would play it usually, so I guess that keeps them guessing.

Re: Preflop raising thoughts and concerns

I've got to agree with the three bet idea. That "6" could end up being the perfect card to pick up 3/4 of this pot if/when another low card comes.

I don't think I would wait for the turn.
