Tales of Big Money Donks - Omaha

[k3nt]

[stickdude]

i've been wanting to post this hand somewhere ever since I watched it this past weekend, but wasn't sure where. Now I see this thread, and this looks the perfect place.

it's for a $25 PLO table, so it's technically lower than the required limits for this thread, but it involves two 4xbuy-in stacks, so in a sense it's $100 PLO. If you primarily play limit Omaha and are nervous about getting started in PLO (like me), this is a great hand to demonstrate just how bad the play at PLO can be...

So we have one big stack firing huge pot-sized bets with nothing more than trips, and the other calling those big bets while chasing a OESD on a paired board...

btw, YelaBely was still b*tching about this particular hand 2 days later...

classic plo8 error -- jamming with a str8 on a low board. to be fair, he had flush redraws/blockers and str8 redraws, but he was playing for half the pot in what ended up being a HU hand.

LOL I just watched a PLO1$ Game and then saw Villian Openpush Bluff 1,5 Stacks with a Boat of nines Seat 2 plays a loose aggressive Game and is a very decent regular and Seat 3 seems to be a fish that has doubled up a few Orbits later through Seat 2. Now Seat 3 got a bit overconfident,thinking that Seat 3 is the fish and made that play

I want to get that lucky again too Thats why I began playing Omaha When I play myself I get slaughtered all time
