if you suck you shouldn't play this hand preflop, but since you did and you suck fold the flop.who ever thought you could gain an edge by taking into account where you suck? (hint: probably not your opponents. play like a rock during omaha8 rounds until you get the hang of it. easy enough of an edge to exploit, no?).

If you're going to play a hand like that, you're looking for one of three flops:1) 234 (any other combination of lows gives you, at best, the 2nd nut low)2) at least two high cards that connect with your hand, such as KTx or JJx3) a combination of low cards and clubs to give you a good low draw and nut flush drawThese are the only flops on which you should be continuing with that hand, IMO, and that flop doesn't fit any of the three categories. On the flop you have nothing but a 2nd nut low and a backdoor nut flush draw. Not a whole lot of value there. Once the turn comes and it isn't a 4 and it's a non-club, your hand is now pretty much worthless.
