Learning O8 from the ground up

Postby stickdude » Mon May 15, 2006 3:32 pm

So, after spending some time on the $2/$4 LO8 and $25 PLO8 tables and donking off about 10% of my stack, I realized that I know just enough about O8 to be dangerous (to myself). As such, I've busted myself back down to the $2 PLO8 games until I figure out what I'm doing.

That also means I'm going to posting a lot of hands, like this one -

Ultimate Bet Pot-Limit Omaha/8, $.02 BB (8 handed) from (Format: Bet The Pot)

MP2 ($3.56)
CO ($1.90)
Hero ($2.06)
SB ($1.77)
BB ($.44)
UTG ($3.88)
UTG+1 ($2.08)
MP1 ($1.96)

Preflop: Hero is Button with [7h], [2h], [8s], [As].
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.02, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.02, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.11, 1 fold, BB calls $0.09, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds.

Should I have just limped in here? Or are the side cards (78) too weak?

Flop: ($0.27) [8d], [7c], [5s] (2 players)
BB bets $0.27, Hero ?????

So I flop the nut low and top 2 pair. Assuming that villian had a full stack, would a pot-sized raise be a good idea here? In this case, it doesn't really matter since villian only has $.06 left behind.

um, yeah, i put the short stack all in... no brainer. fwiw, my default would be to play this really fast. i'd only slow down if i thought i could get some CSs to pay me off on the flop and/or turn.

pfr is fine given your position.

That was my default as well. In fact, I hit the bet pot button before I noticed that he only had 6 cents left. Of course he calls, he did have the straight, a 2 on the turn counterfeits my nut low, and I don't fill up on the river, so he scooped. :(

I think I played it fine, but wanted to check with the experts here.

Yeah tough break but you're basically in the same spot here - you have 4 outs to redraw to a scoop, he has 6.
