Default Re: How did I do on this one?

Hi SteamBoatin,

Yeah, in Omaha you're not worried about flush cards higher that your made flush. Since they have to play two cards, they either already have it or they don't and it's not coming. Your raise will not get draws to a hand better then a flush to fold - like the other poster said, maybe 2 pair, but not likely at .5/1.

If you held the nut flush, obviously (I think) you want to raise (that should be charging the draws just like in hold'em). I suppose if there's lots of opponents, you could make an argument to just call and keep the field large, especially if there's a low draw out there. My thinking is the nut low draw isn't going to fold, so you may as well encourage all the lows to continue thereby building your half the pot.

This could be completely wrong - anyone, please chime in if it needs to be corrected.
