  1. First of all, that tournament structure sucks, the chipleader has 11.5 big blinds. Secondly, you should have pushed with the sevens. Third, if the big blind had less than you and you both go out, you are still in the money, if you are facing a bigger pair from somewhere around the table, then the big blind will probably go out, too, so you will be in the money. How did you get that low of a stack?

  2. Did you put him on K10? That is probably the only hand that you are behind on the turn. Unless you have a read on him that says he bets flush draws. Why didn't you raise the river with the nut flush? Did you think he had a full house?

  3. If that note was right, it was fine play. He probably has a weak ace or king, no pair. Does he call river bets with crap hands? If so, bet. But otherwise, you probably won't get more out of him.

  4. I think you should bet the flop. I find in these kind of hands if it gets checked around the flop and you bet the turn, everyone folds.True. But if everyone is folding on the turn they are going to fold on the flop, so you won't get anything more. If they are on a draw and they get a free card on the flop, then make it on the turn, they will bet and you can call/raise depending on what you think they have. Give them a chance to catch up, not everyone is going to call a bet on the flop with a draw.

  5. The fold wasn't bad, but you probably could have saved the extra bet on the flop. You said that you called with the intention of throwing away on the turn, depending on what fell. The only card that's going to help you at this point is a 10, and if it's a diamond you still might be in trouble. If your read is telling you that you're beat, go with it and don't waste the additional bet.
    Agreed. Why call the flop with the intention of folding? It doesn't make any sense. If you have a feeling, and your feelings are usually right, then go with them.
  6. welll how old are the kids? im known around the neighborhood as being the best babysitter
    You are definitely the kid from school that wanted to be in the "cool" group but didn't realized that it wasn't going to happen. No offense.
  7. Check. If you bet you could lose them. Just check and wait for someone else to bet. If no one bets the flop, I might check the turn as well, but I guess everyone would play the turn differently. If someone is on a flush or straight draw and they get it, they are going to bet/raise the turn, so let them. Unless someone makes a higher straight flush, you have the best hand, so let everyone else dig their graves and then take them out.

  8. this is so read-dependent that without a read, every option sucks.*shrug*aseem
    I guess I could disconnect. I had only been playing at the table for 15 or so hands. And the only read I have on villain is that he LRR 99.
    Don't do this, it's cheap. Play the game the best you can. If you were in this situation live, you wouldn't be able to walk away from the table and see what happens, so work through the tough decisions.
  9. I agree, you need a read. But even if he did this to you earlier with 99, you still have to put him on a bigger hand than yours. I wouldn't have capped the flop after he three bet. Calling down works on the turn and river. He might have 99 or 88, but more likely he has you beaten. Without a read it is harder. With a read you might be able to fold this earlier or raise if you thought he had AK.

  10. what?!you WAY overvalued a dry pair of aces with no redraws. this is disaster in omaha hi only, which means it's extreme disaster in omaha hi/lo.also, don't raise high-only hands. it's not for value--you push your edge when you have a strong chance of scooping. pre-flop, that means strong high prospects (big pair, suited ace, connecting cards, etc.) with very strong low prospects (A-2 with counterfeit protection, etc.).so, this is playable pre-flop since you're in late position, but it's not raisable.and no, there are no continuation bets in loose omaha hi/lo games. in tougher, tighter games they exist, but only occasionally at that (with very ragged boards like 9-9-2 rainbow, for example) and where the flop is three-way or heads-up, etc.call pre-flop.check/fold flop.check/fold turn.check/fold river.aseem
    Completely correct. Play to scoop in O8. You can make more money there than anywhere else on the net if you understand only that.
