Ben - Good point. However, against tough opponents, it's really hard to tell, and if the pot gets big enough you should probably be more inclined to call.

Even then,if a river card produced a possible straight that would be completed by cards that most Omaha players are likely to keep,& if a player bet from early position into several other players,it would be an easy fold.

Another good point except that folding top two pair on the river, although perhaps easier under certain conditions, is not necessarily correct. You do encounter bluffing in this game, and when low is possible, you can't always tell if the bet is coming from a rivered nut straight or a rivered nut low (or neither or both).

Anyhow, thanks for the input.
