sealster 0 Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I'm not an omaha expert by any means, but why on earth do you want him folding? You have a monster hand and worst case scenario he has a wrap with kqjx with all those cards being diamonds so he has 9 outs max, and even if he hits then you have tons of redraws. Get your money in that spot all day, low limit tourneys in any game besides holdem are full of people begging to give you their chips! I like the half pot bet since he might take one off with a pair and a gutshot or something like that, but I'm just a guy who got lucky once in an omaha tourney anyway Link to post Share on other sites

You have a monster hand and worst case scenario he has a wrap with kqjx with all those cards being diamonds so he has 9 outs max, Opponent's best hand is KQJT (or KQJ2) with the flush draw, and he would have more like 16 outs, not 9. I think you should pot it here, but either way your opponent is probably going all in with the wrap. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Opponent's best hand is KQJT (or KQJ2) with the flush draw, and he would have more like 16 outs, not 9.We've got the nut flush draw and no straight flush draws are available. Opponent has 9 outs at most...and fewer if he doesn't have the K/Q/J of diamonds. Link to post Share on other sites

Smasharoo 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I'm not an omaha expert by any means, but why on earth do you want him folding? You want him folding. Him raising's ok too. Him folding whatever equity he has here isn't a bad thing. What you don't want in a pot limit game is giving him implied odds to draw.good luck. Link to post Share on other sites
