Just sat down recently, so no info on villain. Wondering if I played this poorly or if this is standard.

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.05 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($4.07)
MP ($9.07)
Button ($4.71)
Hero ($3.95)
BB ($7.91)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K, K, A, J.
UTG calls $0.05, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.15, BB raises to $0.5, UTG folds, Hero calls $0.35.

Flop: ($1.05) 7, 5, 6 (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $0.8, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $1.05

Pot it preflop rather than 3xbb. You may as well get the maximum value you can.

If I have a read that the guy only reraises AAxx preflop then I c/r the flop. It's hard to see how he can stand action there unless he has AA89, or AA 55-77.

Generally though, it's standard to check/fold.

Seems fairly standard.

Not so sure about that, this is micro stakes. These players tend to overplay mediocre hands. But I may give that move a try next time.

Don't mind Simo. He thinks all players are as good as him to realize when they are beat and make good folds.

In reality they very rarely notice they are beat at these stakes.

Bet it when you have it and fold when you don't.

Easy check/fold.

I often find myself saying "how the hell could he call that?!?!?!?!? ohmy.gif "

I should move up to where people respect my raises. tongue.gif
