Hand 2 - I like your play a lot. I take the same approach I think, though betting out would be OK too. I think you've got too much to fold here, and I'm not necessarily believing that this flop has necessarily put the PFR ahead. Most likely he had a big wrap type hand and your aces are ahead, or (perhaps) there's just a sniff of a chance he has a set. Your two aces plus your flush outs still give you comfortably over a third of the equity though, so even in that scenario you're not in such a bad spot by pushing. It's a nice example of a good PLO "backup" hand whereby if you've made a mistake, it simply can't be a big one because of your "backup" outs. Small -EV situations are fine in this game now and again - it's the ones where you're crippled (middle set vs top set etc) that kill you.
Hand 3 - pretty straightforward play really. Them's the breaks.Statistics: Posted by Felonius_Monk — Sat Sep 03, 2005 2:21 pm
