PLO - opinions on betting with the nuts wanted

I am not a veteran, but I hate slowplaying in Omaha. I agree that the flop call was ok, but A max re-raise on the turn is a must.

I probably would have bet the flop too.

Reasons:

1: Your opponent will put in more money when drawing - he probably wouldn't call any kind of bet on the river with just a set.

2: He may shut down after a flat call on the flop - if he is smart.

Fortunately, you were playing a moron. You ever play any of the games on UB? Juha Helpi and Devilfish play 5/10 PL sometimes. UB also had a 100x max buy-in instead of 50.

Very good points, thanks. I've played limit Omaha and Omaha/8 usually 3/6 or 5/10 at UB IIRC but never PL. I'm just trying to expand my horizons by playing PLO and I only picked Paradise because they have several games running and because I'm trying to clear a deposit bonus there.

I have always liked Paradise's Omaha 8/b tourneys. They have a mix of good and bad players. Once the tourneys get down to the last 20, the games get tough. I also like UB's Omaha 8/b tourneys. Both are good if you like Omaha.
