Bubble of a $5 Rebuy. I'm 3/11 and 9 players cash. I've only really started playing PL Omaha recently but seem to be doing OK. I'm not sure I got this right though as far as timing in the tourney and the way I played it.

Full Tilt Poker Game #3532797111: $5 + $0.50 Rebuy (26893388), Table 5 - 800/1600 - Pot Limit Omaha Hi - 18:35:11 ET - 2007/09/11

Board: [Js Ah 4h 8c Ts]
Seat 2: aylon showed [5h Ac 8s As] and won (81,356) with three of a kind, Aces
Seat 3: lono13 showed [Ks Kd 9d 3s] and lost with a pair of Kings
Seat 5: shootlus (button) didn't bet (folded)
Seat 8: JermJac24 (small blind) folded before the Flop
Seat 9: magmatic444 (big blind) folded before the Flop

Aylon had been raising a lot and claiming high pocket pairs but had shown weakness to reraises and I had a pretty solid table image. When he started to ramble on during the disconnect ahead of him I started to think about the aces but I felt I had to call when he went all in.

Two questions:

Was I overly aggressive/incorrect with my pre flop play?
Should I have folded to his all in? The odds seemed about right to me.

Oh, I ended up finishing in 9th for about $37. icon_frown.gif

Once you repot preflop , you can't fold to his push. You have the right odds.

Other than that i probably flat call the first raise preflop. I am more like to repot preflop with this hand in a cash game.
