Default Re: What is two pair good for in limit Omaha Hi ?

i don't play limit omaha, but i can tell you that you have NO chance of taking this down with a bet on the flop. your opponents are getting 20+:1 odds on your bet. considering the preflop action, that board likely gives at least one or two players draws, so unless they're complete chimps they're not folding when getting 20+:1, even if their draw is totally mediocre.

Should I bet here because the pot is $10 and I could possibly take it down and have the best hand or should I not even bother ? The pot was so big so I bet. If the pot was $4 , though maybe my decision would be different and a check would be better ?

you need to read theory of poker. your .50 bet is more likely to take down the small $4 pot you mentioned that the $10 pot, contrary to what you said. this is really a poker fundamental.

i would check this flop, and call one bet. if this post came off as overly harsh i didn't mean it, i just want to emphasize that you should read theory of poker and get some fundamentals down.
