mk 11 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Hey guys, haven't been playing much O8 lately so I haven't been around this forum much, but I played a $22 PLO8 tourney on Stars yesterday. Reads - this table has been extremely aggressive on the whole, a lot of pre-flop jamming, stop and gos out of the blinds, etc. My question is, after this gets checked around to me twice, is my hand strong enough to bet the turn? Also, I have no idea why I didn't raise preflop. This is such a crappy hand I think I meant to try to steal and then misclicked. So try to ignore that. PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha/8 Tourney, (800/1600) (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FCP) saw flop BB ($20552) UTG ($47819) UTG+1 ($13378) MP1 ($9474) MP2 ($44276) Hero ($12902) Button ($34677) SB ($22422) Preflop: Hero is CO with J , 3 , 9 , A . 4 folds, Hero: calls $1600, Button: calls $1600, SB: calls $800, BB checks. Flop: ($4000) K , 5 , 5 (4 players) SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, Button checks. Turn: ($4000) 6 (4 players) SB checks, BB checks, Hero??? Link to post Share on other sites
JacKingOff_suit 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I am very tempted to bet the flop and take it right there. Link to post Share on other sites
checkymcfold 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I am very tempted to bet the flop and take it right there.in a tournament setting, i am very, very often betting this flop. you can make it impossible for someone who doesn't have a 5 to call, and probably get a free card for your running low if you do get called and know you're beat. if you get c/red, as you said happens a lot, then i think you can safely fold.

cdddc75 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Weak made flush on a paired board and second nut low draw = check, fold to a substantial wager from button.I really, really hate that preflop limp with a marginal hand and your stack size relative to the blinds and other stack sizes.Either pot it to steal or just fold preflop.

Right, me too, that's why I said try to ignore it. Link to post Share on other sites
