Player G has played pretty standard-ly, no glaring mistakes or soul reads. He's been betting when he's supposed to like if he had xx xx Ad 2c up against boards like xx xx 3d Js with a large portion of his range. He's also been folding when he supposed to like if he has 8s 5c 3d Td to a bet from a xx xx 5d 6h board. Player B is an unknown and new to the table.

That takes balls. If one doesn't have balls, a good hand can be used as a substitute.2) He bet into the field. I thought there was a very strong possibility that he had a flush. However, that would mean that his flush was king-high and even worse: it would have to be a diamond flush (and no, i'm not just saying this in hindsight. these were my actual thoughts as soon as he made the bet).I wanted to make the hero fold to his 1st bet on 6th street and might have if he had xx xx 4s 5s Jc Ks instead, but because he had diamonds out I said to myself "in order for him to have me beat, he would not only have to have coolered me with flush over flush, the deck would have had to deal out 10 diamond cards to precisely me AND him. The chance of him having a k-high diamond is low, like lottery-low."I 2-bet him, he 3-bet me which put the fear of God into me. I flatted the 3-bet. Blanks hit the river for both of us and we went to showdown unimproved after he bet once and I called.I posted this hand to see if my urge to hero fold 6th was too paranoid.

2 questions:1. I play on fulltilt and when I check the last hands the cards are out of order on razz, stud, and stud h/l-why is that?2. Is there a website to that has a poker calculator for the rest of the HORSE games (ORSE)?

At #1, its because they want to emulate live poker where you can obviously shuffle your whole cards and not know what they started with which is really frustrating :(Yes @ #2, dont have the link off hand though... Ill search for it a little later.

1 - if you play stud in a casino they toss you cards and its common practice to mix your down cards around. 2 - twodimes.com has an equity calculator for every game. i think propokertools does also and has a lot more functionality.

*Brag Post*I wanted to play some HORSE last night, and I always play .25/.50, my bank roll is $150 and I planned on trying .5/$1 when I got my BR to $200.Well there was no .25/.5 game, but a few of the .25/.5 regulars were playing .5/1. I had notes on 3 of the 7 players at the table. Basically I had noted that two of the three were loose/passive and one was LAG.Anyway, I sat down for 57 hands and made 8.5 BB and was quite pleased that I didn't nit up nor did I donk off... /bragGL all

I think you should generally be either capping this flop or c/r the turn.

Thought about this more and I think I like capping the flop, and playing it the way you did from the turn on.

Definitely should have capped the flop, I was thinking mp2 might cap, but should have just done it...Turn on is pretty easy, and I actually ended up with 3/4 as CO had a :club: 3 :ts and mp2 had A6TX for a lower straight and the same low...

I didn't know there was such a thing as Limit Omaha...
Really? generally played hi/lo 8-or-better...Don't you play 8-game? Is it not included?

Yes, I'm aware of Limit O8 but not Limit Omaha High. The converter posted the hand as Limit Omaha, not Limit Omaha Hi-Lo.

I now see where the confusion comes from... and it was O8, silly converter...And seeing as it was O8, I needed to cap the flop and not get tricky, they ae all staying in whether I raise or not, so might as well do it...

Which limits are you playing? Do you want advice for every game?
How about advice for LHE. Can't seem to win at this game, lately I've been sitting out during LHE @ .25/.50.Plus last night I was playing against a super aggressive player who seemed to win everytime at showdown (and lost my buyin-was a little card dead, but everytime I would get in on a draw at Omaha, stud, and stud/8 I would lose or fold near or on the end against this player).How do I deal with this? He raised everytime he had the bet.Probably just wait for premium hands?Bankroll is 200 but I have a job so I can redeposit if needed.Thoughts?

Get position on him, if another spot on the table opens. Worth the effort. Beyond that, sitting out at LHE worked for me for a long, long time hehe.
