Say you have A3xx in the BB with one caller
Board is 2459Q with no flush possible You both check flop, you bet turn, he raises, you 3-bet, he caps. Check/call on the river or ever a time to jam if this guy is LAGGY? What if you decide to bet flop and it gets capped on flop? Check/call down with no redraw? |

A63x and you're dead meat, or is this MUB syndrome?

Not sure what MUB syndrome is. Geneal ?, yeah, I suspect that exact holding a lot of the time though, but I've been surprised.

Burd,
This is a call for me as well uless I have a 6 in my hand to go with it. Then I raise until the raise button is broken on my computer. Dave |

Burdz - You evidently made the wheel on the turn, right?
If so, I think you have to put your opponent on either a wheel (same as you), a six-high straight (in which case you also split the pot), or both a wheel and a six-high straight (in which case you get quartered). The prudent play is to check/call the river because the distinct possibility of your opponent having both a wheel and a six-high-straight is greater than the possibility your opponent, even if seemingly clueless, was jamming with nothing after the turn.

Buzz [/ QUOTE ] Obviously so. There isn't a hand in poker on a 2459Q board that an opponent will 3 bet that A3 wins more than half the pot. This is why you do not raise. |

Actually no, in both hands I described I speak of flopping the wheel. At least at 5/10 and higher it seems opponents without the wheel or 6-High straight will give you credit for a big hand and fold when you lead out on a board like 245, 235, or A45. Limited experience I know, even the LAGgy players show this respect, though. Therefore, I don't automatically bet my wheel (which is a mistake, how large I'm not sure) if there's no flush draw on board and I'm HU. Depends on the opponent and my position. Obviously I don't want them catching runners for a flush or higher straight, but I didn't think sandbagging the wheel Hu was terrible, if it is then chime right in, I need as much help as possible.

Re:Checking the flop with a wheel. IMO,it is better to reserve the sandbag for situations where they can improve to a second best, playable hand. In Omaha, it is just too dangerous to give free cards. Make them pay to try to improve their set, draw to a higher straight, or receive a counterfitting card to share a wheel with you.
