I lead the turn and fold to agression.

It depends, of course on my position and how many people I have to act after me but in the position of top 2 pair and a suited and connected board I am very much of the view is it is a one bet hand i.e. bet the flop to pick up the pot and close down in the face of aggression. I would only be the turn if called if the turn card is a very obvious brick for the straight and flush draws that are out.

You are right not to like it is about the worst made hand that can be played in Omaha and is routinely over played by Hold’em players when they 1st start to explore the delights of Pot limit Omaha

tks for the replies.

i don't like the idea of leading the turn here. if anything i think i should of led the flop but with 5 players behind i can't really be ahead all that often can i?

i guess i would at least find out if i was dominated or not.

my thinking during the hand was to check the flop and if it gets checked through i would lead a brick turn and check/fold to a scare unless i was getting odds to draw to a boat.

another thing, even if i lead the flop and get one caller, i can't really be happy with my hand can i?

I like the way you played this. Your totally OOP. If we were in LP, I'd take a shot at the pot. But we can bet into that flop because there are so many dominating hands that can repot us and so many drawing type hands that are gonna come along. turn, I like calling and trying to fill w/ that price and then it's an easy chuck on the river.. (sorta. funny min bet there. i would have actually called there to see his hand).

i was pretty sure the 3rd player was going to call so i decided to fold. im pretty sure he was peddling the nut flush although if he was his turn bet sucked.

Do you not have a flush? I thought you did. That's why I said lead the turn. If not, that changes my opinion. I think you should fold, because you don't want to being drawing a to a lesser full house.
