I think i made a mistake by pushing it preflop.

This hand is very suitable for post flop play but i didn't want anyone else in the pot and i tried to isolate it with the orinigal raiser to keep my flush draws and two pair situations alive against a potential AAxx.

What do you think about this preflop?

I think I would just call the raise to $8.4, but I have no problem with the shove. Being in good position I think calling has a slightly higher epectation due to the fact that so many flops will give us either the nuts or a brazillion outs. I doubt we have a huge edge preflop, so I want to try and get it in on a flop where we can have a greater edge. We can also save a huge amount on bad flops.

Are you raising the first raise? Potting it or raising a reasonable amount?

I'm probably potting. I like to raise and reraise preflop with a lot of different hands.

You need to post more hands.A lot more hands.

Since 15th of December I have only played about 2700 hands of poker. ~250 of which are omaha hands. I have had (and continue to have) a load of work to do. End of January and I will probably have more time to play. I can post on FCP while doing this project, but I can't play a session of poker (takes up too much concentration).

I'll see if I can dig up anything interesting in those 250 hands though.

You haven't quitted your day job yet?? Come on TP/MM icon_dance.gif

Seriously it'd be cool if you can find a few hands.

I don't like to be the only one who posts hands which are butchered so badly.
