Re: A Live PL Omaha hand that really got to me
He made a play I make all the time. Its a common play with a shared straight.
Thet being said, why call the turn bet if you wont call the river? What are you beating here but a stone cold bluff? What are you giving up by folding...is 1/2 the pot worth it?
And if you are going to raise KJ9x post sized preflop, you need to be prepared to pick off bluffs from time to time.
Oh and last, your comment about this affecting you deeply suggests that your ego is tied up in your poker play. You need to play egoless poker to be very successful. Its not about manhood or bragging rights as to who is smarter. Its just a series of financial transactions and decisions that need to be made rationally at every turn.
