I don't play a lot of Omaha but jump in once in awhile for a change of pace. Plus it can be a good TILT killer.... with so many draws just bet, bet ,bet.....

$5.00 SNG Omaha HI/LO.

Am I missing something here? I know I played the hand terribly and shouldn't have even been in it but it was late and I was down so I said WTF.. but did'nt expect this......

200/400
Seat 2: bitner666 (3264)
Seat 6: BeaDoll (3594)
Seat 7: monty9 (1142)
monty9 posts small blind (100)
bitner666 posts big blind (200)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to monty9 [ 9d, 2c, 8d, 6d ]
BeaDoll raises (400) to 400
monty9 calls (300)
bitner666 calls (200)
** Dealing Flop ** : [ 6s, 3h, Qd ]
monty9 checks.
bitner666 checks.
BeaDoll bets (200)
monty9 calls (200)
bitner666 calls (200)
** Dealing Turn ** : [ 3s ]
monty9 checks.
bitner666 checks.
BeaDoll bets (400)
monty9 calls (400)
bitner666 calls (400)
** Dealing River ** : [ Ts ]
monty9 bets (142)
monty9 is all-In.
bitner666 folds
BeaDoll folds
Creating Main Pot with $3142 with monty9

With this hand I went on to win the thing... but I actually folded the next hand in disbelief... thought it was some "cult" Omaha trick??
Why is it a penny for your thoughts but
you have to put your 2 cents in??

Somebody's making a penny!!

Why did you call it down in the first place?

Fold pre-flop.

Fold the flop.

Fold the turn.

Fold the river.

Fold fold fold.

No offense, Monty, but nothing you did in this hand makes a lick of sense to me. The play of your opponents is only slightly less inexplicable. Your starting hand is *terrible* and not one thing that happened on the board changed that.

Man, are all of y0u Omaha guys so serious?!?!?

Like I said, I knew I shouldn't have played it in the first place, It was late
I just took a bad beat a few hands before to loose my wire to wire chip lead. ( quads beat my boat ).

I was looking for comments on the other two folding to my only bet on the river with a 1/4 of the BB?? Thats not odd??

This is like calling a raise preflop in Holdem with 2-7 offsuit, except in holdem you generally have any easier time bluffing after the flop.

They were evidently both on low draws that missed. Their plays are not that crazy.

They both chased a low and missed.
