Re: Am I an idiot? (Pushing with nothing)

I don't think you're an idiot. A Big Blind all-in steal is a move you need to have in your arsenal.
Most of the time when you have a few limpers they'll fold to a big raise...they just wanted to see...

Middle set plus top pair...do you play this like top set?

I saw the hand that Phil Hellmuth busted out on in the WSOP PLO event.
QQKx and the flop comes QKx.

The way he played the hand got me to thinking...when you have top pair plus middle set, do you...

Please recommend some good books/articles on Omaha strategy

I've searched the bookstores and all the Omaha books are for hi-low split, I can't find anything for plain Omaha high, either pot limit or limit.

Thanks in advance for your help

Where are the softest PLO games?

I'm fairly new to PLO and wondering where the softest cash games are for $25 and $50 PLO.

I know for HE and Stud party has the softest cash games but I don't know if that's true for Omaha also.

Re: Question about non nut flushes

Question about non nut flushes

I've been reading up on Omaha and noticed that most authors love hands like 89TJds and 9TJQds and it makes alot of sense.

However I'm wondering how hard you can push with a Jack or Ten high flush?...

Much of this advice is context dependent. Limping behind is not necessarily bad, but it's important to ask yourself: are you going to lose 100 BBs if you flop top pair Q kicker and...

Re: \"Putting your tourney life on the line\" is the new \"AK is a drawing ha

Again, I considered AKs here instead of AKo, because AKo is even farther behind a pocket pair. 5% might not seem like a great deal to be behind a pair of twos, but that means that out...

Re: Could I have gotten away from this hand?

Ok here's what I learned so far.
Limping behind from the button was a decent play.

Not leading on the flop was a bad play because of the possible draws. I should have made a pot sized bet on the...

1st hand I think his limp is great, he is out of position. He raises and will get probably everyone to call which means with queens he has no idea what to do with 250 BB behind him.

you're crushed and it's obvious, but big pot, so i think i'd look at the turn. everything after that is just money in the lake. even if you hit your out, you might still be dead.

Sure but I'm guessing the point of having the program is not only to rate the other players but to find holes in your own game.
So maybe I need to tighten up, loosen up, be more or less aggressive...
