Re: Losing at O8 limit
[ QUOTE ]
I think it's better to bet this yourself, if you plan to continue. And I think you have to plan to continue. Otherwise, I don't think you can play the hand to begin with.

Casino bonus question

You aren't getting rich calling on the board with two low cards. It's about break even. You'll get 1/6 nearly as many times as you get 1/2.

Re: Need help with a hand
This brings up a subtle point that I have seen come up a lot in Pot Limit O8. Very often the nut lows drive the betting so fiercely that other hands simply must bail.
In your example, the only...

Omaha HiLo in Vegas
I'd like to play some 6-12 to 10-20 Omaha Hi Lo in Vegas.
Where can I find this. I know the Mirage had 5-10 with a full kill, and the Belagio seems to only run 20-40.
Anything else?

Re: LO8 1/2 - Was I wrong in pumping this Pot?
Suppose you KNOW that someone else has A2. Also suppose you are only in a 4 handed pot. Should you raise with nut low and a nut flush draw?
Well, we have assumed another A2, so there are only 42...

Playing a bad flop in a big pot
In a very loose and fairly passive 6-12 game you are in the BB with AhKh. With 7 way action, raising seems automatic, and that is exactly what the BB did.
The flop came 9d5s3s.
Personally, I...
