If I'm calling, obviously UTG is calling the rest of his chips too. I'm thinking there are a lot of overcards in their hands. Anybody else gamble or lay down? Shoulda lay down with initial reraise?

I don't think you are supposed to call the three bet with this hand let alone the five bet shove with a caller

Can I use your monies to gamble...then fo sho

See, thats the problem, I play all the time but I never HAVE any monies.

Do any answers change if one of the 7's was a 5 or 9?

you might want to go to twodimes and play around a bit and develop a sense of how certain types of hands match up against certain ranges.

I was gonna say that. Take out the pair in your hand and I like.

My reason for calling was that I though a lot of high cards were saturated in their hands and the flop would be more favorable for my hand. UTG didn't have enough money to reraise so I was essentially closing the action pre. I had a similar post a long time ago, that I couldn't find, about getting in it multiway pre with TT98 and almost all the responses were favorable.

Another line of this kind of thinking comes from the way Mike Matusow explains his tourney O8 strategy of knowing where the aces are. If he thinks too many players are going lo he will try capping it with a hi only hand because the deck has a lot of higher cards in it. Is this line of thinking credible for a hi only omaha?

I flopped the straight and took down a 4+ buyin pot. Probably being results oriented but i would have posted this if I lost anyway because I was curious if anyone else thinks this way when playing.

The thing is, I would not call the initial 3bet probably... But after that I am folding this like never... I guess it is not the most correct line, but I do like to gamble a bit when playing Omaha, and with the chance to take the huge pot, I'm getting it in with all the others.

Not a great place for a gamble... if you had 6789 it would be a much better spot, the pair kind of hurts you...
