1. He called my pre-flop reraise with double suited 8s including a suited king. That's a limping hand at best.
2. I bet representing the big overpair + flush draw on the flop (as I had done pre-flop), and he calls me with just a pair of 8s and no draws. He makes a needless flush to beat me anyways.
Luckily, this tempermental game proves to me that there are plenty of fish in the sea, rewarding me with a $45 pot followed by a $20 pot soon thereafter. *huggles FisherStars* |

After calling the pre-flop raise, post-flop is a joke.
Why are you playing 4-card pre-flop bingo with these idiots, your edges aren't big enough to punish them and raising AAxx unbalanced is suicide with deep money against anyone with a brain. |

Playing pre-flop bingo against these pissants turns them into raging maniacs. And the play I've witnessed at this table is so utterly rotten that I feel bad taking their money (and I'm up $45). Case in point? My top set on an uncoordinated board got 3 callers when I potted the flop (Play has been extremely loose and sloppy. I had beaten a guy set over set a few hands before, and he showed me his bottom set as though getting all of his chips in the middle with it against 4 other players were something to be proud of.), only to end up losing to some dillweed who thought it would be cute to hit a runner-runner straight (which is sad enough in NLHE, but just laughable in NLOH). |

| Username appropriate. Low stakes Omaha crazy loose, not worth fretting over. Bad play makes big profits. |
