Awwwwww rin. Half stack gets no respect. He would draw you in on the river for all your chips with a boat and probably the nut flush too. I agree this is As Jo alot
-
Think of it this way. If we make a pot sized raise now we lose $15 when someone repops us and we fold, or they fold hands that are behind ours (minus huge draws like set+Fd, which may also repop..)If we call on the turn and call any pot sized bet on the river, we lose the same $15 but have a chance to win in showdown.Obviously. But the thing is do we want both SB and BB to get to river for $2.6? -
In tournaments I see people with hands like Ax 9s and Ax Js do this a lot. Not sure about cash games though, but this opponent is laggy...
-
No you played it fine. Sure K877 single suited is a junky hand that I would just barely want to complete the SB with, but this is a dream flop for you.On draw heavy boards against multiple opponents it's often nice to see a blank (ie anything 9 or higher than isn't a heart) or the board pair before committing a lot of money. Not raising also makes it more likely that one of both of these guys will keep pumping the pot with their bottom set/big draw since they don't put you on top set.

Your posts confuse me. Why don't you want to be all in with the (now 2nd) nuts? Especially when the chance of those 2 flop raisors having JJxx is like 1%. Sure someone *could* have 3568 with hearts, but on the turn when the straight/flush doesn't hit you are golden.If the turn was an offsuit 3 and the action was the same, one of them probably has 56xx so you could fold.

These spots are so gross in deep stacked PLO. With the rainbow board on the turn, you know he isn't calling with a flush draw. He *could* have a lower set here quite often though. But knowing if a villain is capable of making a stone bluff when a draw completes (or knowing when to turn a hand like 44, TT or even JT into a bluff to induce a fold) is a very valuable asset.If the river was a 9, I would say very easy check-fold since the most common draw to call a pot bet with there is 3 or 4 cards out of 9QKA (or perhaps something like 89Qx). With the river being a Q, only the AKQx/89xQ combo now has a straight.So all in all, tough spot. Good news is that not as many of his straight draw hands have made a straight on the river. Bad news is that 1) He is unlikely to have a set or two pair, since we know where 2 of the 4's, 2 of the T's and 3 of the J's are. 2) Even if he doesn't have the straight, he may well bluff as if he has it once he sees us check.I think I check-puke-fold to any meaningful bet, because most people who bet will have it here.

Just push that river. A $20 push he still gets 3:1 and it looks a lot more like a busted draw. A $10 suck bet looks like you are begging for a call.
-
Yeah not betting into a dry sidepot is only for tournies. Why let one of the other active players hit a free card to beat you on the river when you are quite sure you are ahead on the turn?
-
Maybe he thinks he's Mike McDermott.Logical thinking FTW!Play within your BR though, durrr. Having your entire roll on the table in an unlimited game is retaaaaaaded. -
We're short, but I would much rather push a trash hand and have a chance that everyone folds than to take QJs to a showdown against a pretty tight player.
-
Slowplay FTL.

You cannot be serious. BBFIDTS.
-
Wrong. What is he betting and then overcalling with on the turn other than 4xxx? Pretty much nothing. I call and curse the river.insta shove -
With position on him call and raise the turn.
-
Stack sizes?
-
Just call both. On the river he won't fold the last $10 if you hit your hand, but you can fold if you miss.
-
I had aces twice yesterday within 100 hands. Except I lost big pots with both of them. Not having aces sounds like a decent alternative to that...
-
I'd say chances are about 50/50 that he has the straight flush or is going nuts with KK/AA here. Gotta call.
-
With position and still a deep enough stack to have implied odds, I call. If we had a shorter stack where we could get closer to all in, I like a raise.
-
Never fold here. To fold the nuts in Omaha you need very deep stacks (at least relative to the size of the preflop pot) and opponents who won't commit their stack with crap. With the preflop raise and this being $5 PLO, neither of these apply.Also, UTG is a shorty who could have almost any 2 cards here. So really we are just in for a stack heads up against MP.
-
I'd swing for the fences on the river. I don't think he is laying down a ten there. Your line doesn't seem much like a 9 really.
-
A 10 isn't exactly a brick. He could have something silly like 77-JJ or QT here with that flop min raise "to see where he is at".Turn's a brick. I forgot to make that part up. -
SB already called on the flop. Sets push over here almost always. Puuuushhhh
-
Take a break. Clear your head and come back to the lower limits with a good mindset. We've all slipped like that at some point or another. My biggest slip was jumping into a juicy $10/20 6max limit game with about 1/6th of my bankroll. I ran it up about $300 before losing it all over the span of a few hours. Expensive lessons learned: Don't play games you are unfamiliar with, don't jump up stakes, and don't chase losses.

Hell yes. You have a monster. Raising hard to fold out a higher flush draw is needed. I think you're 55% against a set, perhaps more.
