Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
9 players
#1
Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is UTG with
Hero calls, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 raises to $0.5, CO calls, 2 folds, BB calls, Hero calls, MP1 folds, MP2 calls.
Loose preflop call? Being OOP sucks.
Flop: ($2.85, 5 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $2.75, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, 2 folds.
I bet the pot with the nuts for value against flush draws and low draws. Is checking and waiting for a safe turn an option here?
Turn: ($11.1, 3 players)
Hero checks, MP2 checks, MP3 bets $10.55, Hero folds, MP2 calls all-in $8.55.
Uncalled bets: $2 returned to MP3.
Both draws hit. With no shot at the low and only 10 outs for the high, I check/fold, even though I have the . Was betting the turn good? I have the for fold equity and a redraw in case a flush calls me. The problem is I have nothing for low, so my only chance to scoop is to fold my opponents.
#2
Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is CO with
6 folds, Hero raises to 0.85, 2 folds, BB calls 0.6 (pot was 1.2).
Flop: (1.8, 2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets 1.75
Was slowplaying an option here? I didn't want to split with a runner runner low. On the other hand, what am I being called with: 22xx? ATxx?
#3
Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is UTG+1 with
UTG calls, Hero raises to $1.1, 2 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, CO calls, 4 folds.
Flop: ($5, 4 players)
Hero bets $4.75, 2 folds, CO calls.
I hit top set again, but counterfeit my low in the process. I bet the pot to charge low draws and straight draws.
Turn: ($14.5, 2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.
With a low on the board and no longer having the nuts, I check. Should I have kept up my aggression to try and fold speculative hands like 5h8hxx?
River: ($14.5, 2 players)
Hero bets $13.8
I figure I've got the top half locked up and bet for value. Good?
#4
Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is Button with
5 folds, Hero raises to $0.85, SB folds, BB raises to $1.2, Hero calls.
Flop: ($2.5, 2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $2.85
I figure the BB has AAxx or A2xx. After he checks, I bluff, hoping he whiffed. Was that a mistake? AA3x or A23x can hurt here.
#5
Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP1 with
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.85, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds.
Flop: ($3.65, 4 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, MP3 checks, CO checks.
Turn: ($3.65, 4 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $1.54, 2 folds, SB calls.
I bet half the pot after no one shows any strength with my weak flush and nut low draw. Can I expect flush to have any value whatsoever or am I purely bluffing here?
River: ($6.73, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.
I get called and miss my low. With 3 higher possible flushes and possible full houses, I check behind. I figure if I bet, I'm only being called by better hands. If SB had an ace-high flush, for example, is check/call the river a valid line?Statistics: Posted by Ted — Wed Jul 12, 2006 5:24 pm
