Frez 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I don't mind it. You've nut low, with counterfeit protection - more than that, if you get counterfeited, you make a wheel. Only the two diamonds give me the slightest pause, so someone could have the same low and be freerolling a flush draw. Link to post Share on other sites
Shimmering Wang 1 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I almost never play PLO8 unless I'm playing in a mixed game, and then I check/fold every hand until we play a game I'm more comfortable with, but...I think my money goes in on this board a LOT. If he has nut low, a diamond draw, and middle pair (say something like 2368 with 2 diamonds) we're ahead here. We're only in rough shape if he has something like 2388 w/a diamond draw, and then we're probably a little worse than 60/40. Get it in, I think. I'd wait for somebody who knows what he's talking about, but this seems like a pretty good time to get the money in.Wang Link to post Share on other sites

We have top pair, a 9-out wheel draw, and -- at minimum -- a quarter of this pot 100% of the time. If he has 234 with a diamond draw, we're still probably ahead.Wang Link to post Share on other sites
sabes99 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 i'm no expert on O8, esp PL, but i would get my money in...this is one of the best flops you could expect for your hand with the nut low, the counterfeit blocker, top pair and a wrap Link to post Share on other sites

checkymcfold 0 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 as a general rule, get it all in any time you have a lock low and any legitimate draw to the high (or vice versa). if you get quartered consistently doing only that, then the game is simply not beatable unless you open up your aggression significantly and outplay people a lot.
