Default Re: Omaha 8ob: Win %?

I've just started keeping a database of my online play, so I only have about 3700 hands of 10 handed play in my database. I personally win without a showdown 4.4% of the time, scoop 4.3% of the time (for a total of 8.7% scooped), take 3/4ths .8% of the time, take 1/2 6.6% of the time, and take 1/4th 1% of the time. So the 9% figure sounds about right for scooping, and including the other fractions of pots yields about 13%.

I wouldn't worry if your stats are a bit different because online games can vary in their looseness/tightness. I've seen some very tight games, even in the low limits (stealing blinds in 2-4 isn't that strange), although these tight games aren't necessarily bad. (A lot of the tight players play weak-tight-bad.)

To answer your other question, I too see about 40% of the flops, but a lot of these are unraised big blinds.
