Have to assume my AA is dead, but I do have the double flush draw and a K if someone is getting out of line with KK. BB is prone to getting out of line and could have just about any four connectors. He was looking to play some pretty big pots with very marginal holdings.

Call.

Even if one of them has AA you still have >33% equity in the pot. Probably around 40% (of the three way pot).

Sure it'd be nice if the 7 was a Q J or T, but it's double suited aces with a K, you can't be folding preflop...

Bad beat forum is down the street. Laying down AAxx double suited to a 3way all in in PLO is like laying down KK in a NLH cash game after 3 aces are exposed.

HAHA...i like this one. Not quite sure it is correct because I hate racking my brain with all of those numbers, but a funny analogy nonetheless. I would like to hear from bdc and Bud and I'll post the results.

I call. All day. Every day.


I submit for your viewing pleasure, the following hand, which I like to call "What the FK is this guy thinking" or also known as "why I won't be folding aces preflop hardly ever in pot limit omaha"..look at what he shovels with preflop - are you kidding me? Your guy could be just as dumb.

(granted, I almost lost (and broke my laptop) when I saw him hit 2 pair on the flop, but hooray for river straights)

Well, it's pretty obvious what Bud is going to say. I am right there with all of you. I was praying to the poker gods BB was going to get silly again and as soon as he did I couldn't mash the call button fast enough. My equity on the flop was disgusting high given the circumstances.

Too bad, you had an assload of outs off of that flop too. All 9 of the other diamonds, the other two kings, the other three tens, or the other three deuces would have gotten you there. 17 outs twice, and whiff. Finally, someone else who can feel my pain.

never ever fold this preflop.

Cases for folding AA preflop are rare. Cases for folding double suited AA don't exist.
