A couple of questions. I feel fine playing this hand from the button. Would you play it from EP?

Is this a bad flop call, since I can easily get quartered and have no counterfeit protection.

And what about the turn with my draw to the nut high?

Play from UTG: Absolutely - sutied A2, with a 6 (see pokermafia.com for a great article on the power of the "6").

In this hand, early position raise and continuation suggests A2wheel or AAlow. Heads up I am probably gone, howere with all those callers before it gets to me I am ready to see another card with my backdoor flush and middle pair, although I am worried about straight possibilities (although any straight would probably have re-raised).

On the turn I am not going anywhere with made low and nut flush draw with 4 players calling the pot in front of me!

You just hope a non club 2 doesn't come !

Made a mistake on this post. Thought it was just PLO.

Well are you wattsmit? If so why were you playing that hand to begin with?


You should really seriously consider quit playing plo8.

My bad, I didn't really read the PLO8. I thought it was just PLO, Sorry! I take back what I said before. I just answered a question on PLO so I was not in the PLO8 mood. laugh.gif
