if you are dealt four aces in your hand you should fold. All you got is a pair of aces. I hate getting three of a kind in my hand cause all i have is a pair. With little chance of improving to three of a kind. Besides three of a kind does win sometimes but not all the time.

Omaha is kinda gy but I like it.

[DJA]

I disagree.

First, nobody else has a playable hand. They will not flop a nut low draw guaranteed. They will not flop a nut flush or nut flush draw guaranteed. This should be raised and in theory everyone else should fold.

Just My Thoughts,

That's an interesting point although it seems to me that if you always need an ace in your hand to call a raise, you're playing a little too ABC.

Certainly, in a loose game like this one obviously was, the muck is 100% clear. It's likely you'll have to show down the best hand to win and the odds of AAAA beating 5-6 hands, even if they're random hands, have to be vanishingly small.

[DJA]

I don't play O8 very much, but I can't think of a hand that I call a raise with that doesn't contain an A. Could you give me an example? Maybe KsKcQsJc... there aren't too many playable hands though...

However, having said that, you are right... if the game is loose this hand looks a lot prettier then it is... and it should be mucked.

Just My Thoughts,

[Easy E]

Are you telling me you're putting money into the pot preflop with this hand against ANY field?

Am I missing something here, or does O/8 play differently where you are than where I am?

Or am I just tired?

[Stagemusic]

Yeah I did. Post flop too. Also the turn. OMG...there it is on the river as well. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Your point?
