Default Re: Lowstakes limit O/8--Crapshoot? (Low content-high frustration)

Rosie, what you are describing is normal. Your assumptions are your downfall. Hands like AA aren't very strong or even big favorites at 6-max.

I never said it was, but I would try to get a heads up pot with it and it was of no use. If you think it plays better multiway then your PROBABLY one of the idiots who annoyed the hell out of me.

If it makes you that upset, then you're right, it's not for you. but if what you're describing is correct, you're simply not playing well enough. Also, your sample might be small, so I highly recommend getting pokertracker and figuring out the goods and the bads of your game.

Personally, I'm glad nobody respects my raises in O8. Then I can raise my AA23 from MP and get "disrespected" for value.

I have it, go Play 2000 hands of this crap

if you don't say "I'd rather be raped in the alley behind denneys" afterward, I'll gladly give you street cred

I have no interest in a flame war, but you're not getting it. Low-limit 0/8 is going to be multiway almost always. Isolation at 6max hold'em is possible, but not so much in Omaha 8-6 and especially not in a full game. No one hand is such a favorite that weaker players will especially fear your raise. You adjust by raising hands like A2xx UTG for value and looking for cheap flops with many merely good hands with nut potential.

I cannot even imagine being angry at all flops being 4-way after you raise with a premium hand. It's beautiful to me.
