BB raises PF 100% and bets flop 100%. No real read on UTG, havnt been at table long. Seems to be playing sorta solid/tight I guess. Obviously have the straight too, but worst straight possible.
PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
Hero (MP1) ($5)
MP2 ($12.75)
CO ($10)
Button ($17.40)
SB ($14.05)
BB ($9.30)
UTG ($18.10)
UTG+1 ($4.95)
Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 5 , 5 , 3 , 2
UTG calls $0.10, UTG+1 calls $0.10, Hero calls $0.10, 1 fold, CO calls $0.10, 2 folds, BB bets $0.65, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.55, Hero calls $0.55, CO calls $0.55
Flop: ($2.75) 5 , 4 , 6 (4 players)
BB bets $2.65, UTG+1 raises to $4.30 (All-In), Hero wtf?

I'd gamble, esp if UTG shoved quick.

oh yeah sorry I was lazy def fold pre, 5534 would be marginal. the only hand you really 'like' is 5xx with a FD, A45 is OK but even there you probably won't be a huge favorite.
this is why 4456 is better than 6654 because when you make the combo draw you'll want the set on bottom, hopefully with your cards both over that so you have the nut redraws (and if you don't make a combo hand both these hands mostly suck). that said fold 2235 and 5532.

i would sooner play 5432ds or any 6 high run down with a suit and I'm never really sure if those hands are worth playing, i just like them + they tilt people a bit more.

OK, thanks guys. Still learning what makes a good start hand, being fairly connected I thought it was ok, so thanks for correcting me .

small pairs hurt connectivity, the don't help it. If you miss your set you've cut ~4 outs from your hand, if you caught a piece. If you hit your middle/bottom set you're never a huge favorite stacking off.
