A fun PLO hand
Party $100 buy-in PLO. I have just sat down and waited two hands till the big blind reached me. The same player won both of those hands without a showdown -- I'll call him LAG, for Loose AGgressive.
I pay my BB and wake up right away with AA44, one group suited in diamonds. LAG, who is now in early position and has about $55, raises. MP ($65) calls and button calls. Since I am out of position, I decide just to call. Anybody raise here? Flop is As 9d 3d. I can't think of a prettier flop for my hand. With the aggressive player acting immediately after me, I figure I might trap others in for extra bets with a check raise. LAG bets the pot, MP raises all in (enough to cover LAG, too), and button folds. I never get to make the raise after my check, but I am quite happy to put my money in here. I call, LAG calls all in. LAG had Kd Qd 9x 3x for bottom two and a losing flush draw. MP had Ax Jx x x for top two. So running jacks, 9's, or 3's were my only risk. (Maybe MP had a backdoor flush draw.) Anyway, my set held up and I collected a nice pot. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |
