Quick Basic ?'s on a few PL hands

[Cooker]

Hand one is perfectly played. It is a really great hand and getting all-in preflop is what I would hope for as well.

I will play most KK hands for a limp preflop in PL (not so much in limit). You have a fairly vulnerable nuts on the flop and turn, so I would definitely be betting. I wouldn't be surprised if the raiser on the turn has a nut low and nut flush draw. You should probably be the favorite so obviously call.

I probably wouldn't play hand 3 preflop very often. I think this is a great flop for you since there is no immediate low draw and you have a pretty strong draw for high. I would bet the flop hoping to win right there. I don't like getting flat called here since that look like a nut FD. I think check behind on the turn and call on the end would be more prudent, since you risk the same amount as bet/fold on the turn, but you can pick off dry ace bluffs and smaller flushes (I have come up against people that will draw at any flush and play aggressively when it hits) at showdown.

I find at the $25 tables, a flat call by 90% of the players is ANY flush draw... not necessarily the nuts.

Hand 1: Fine. Dont be amazingly excited, though, and dont be suprised to be out-drawn. Very few Omaha/8 hands are big favorites over others.
Hands 2 & 3: Fold preflop. Hand 2 is borderline. I like playing hands that are powerful hands that can develop into even more powerful hands. (the nuts) Your K High flush wont be good too often ... and if you flop a straight or set with your KK/KQ combos you will have a very vunerable hand. (especially with NO LOW DRAW) Hand 3 is not even close. This is an awful call pre-flop. No way to develop into the nuts, and no low draw.
