Another session i played later on in the same day as my first.

Sorry for the selfishness for posting a load of hands but its probably kinda standard lays or common mistakes which probably arent worth much discussion anyway.

I will probably just move u to 50PLO (lol i keep tying 50NL) coz Ive the BR for it and i should probably get PT version for PLO

As you've said, ther'es lots of hands so answers in brief. Ask me questions if you don't agree or want to clarify something with me

1. pot turn. it's a great hand. river play fine.

2. that is spewage at my stakes. I don't know about 25PLO. I will check the flop here. As played I think I'm calling the flop and checking the turn. I fold it if he pots the turn. He seems relatively sane and he's raised a bet and a call with 2 players to act behind him. You needed to keep the pot small by checking the flop.

3. good

4. good; this hand is stronger PF than hand 3. Why did you raise hand 3 and not this one?

5. we've been here. you have no OESD

6. OK. I'd play it the same.

7. excellent

8. Spewage at any stakes

im kinda surprised though i see what your saying. basically floping a flush thats K high isnt very good still, if its not good then its not good so i wont lay it so strong then.

4. good; this hand is stronger PF than hand 3. Why did you raise hand 3 and not this one?

Im stil unsure of the exact ranking of hands. I havent looked into that bit yet. I knew its strong ish but thought OOP vs passive players so i might find it tough to play a primarily draw heavy hand.

5. we've been here. you have no OESD

oops lol

8. Spewage at any stakes

River only perhaps!! i think my flop and turn is fine. i rep strength on flop so why not bet turn. check behind river for showdown value then i guess but is it usual for opp's to c/r rivers?? am i not missing out on some value by betting here

Hand 1: Fold that crap pre-flop. WTF are we putting him on?
Hand 2: Don't stack off without the nuts in an unraised pot unless your opponent is a proven idiot.
Hand 3: Stacks in center with nuts (no 4 flush possible) good, although I don't play that crap either.
Hand 4: GAMB00L
Hand 5: Stack donation, stop doing this.
Hand 6: Yet another shitty pre-flop hand. I like to have 4-6 good hold'em hands (or JJ+ vs bad players), you only have 2 here.
Hand 7: Routine
Hand 8: River is a pretty easy bet/fold if you're not checking behind.
Hand 9: G00t.

what Fnord said, almost to a tee. 3-suited hands are very marginal.
hands 8,9,6,1,2 are all marginal pre-flop. 2 is OK for 1/2 a BB.

Most interesting hand here is 8, because of the paired board. Nice s/p by villian if he has 66/88/99/TT.

Backdooring flushes and freerolling are a great ways to stack thinking players.

Not really, it depends on your other cards. Basically if a hand would be playable if it only had 2 suits in it you should still play if it has the 3rd suit. That being said, hands like #1 (Ac9c5cJ) and #3 (AhQh3h4) really aren't worth playing. I don't mind hands like #9 (Ad5d4d4) because we are on the button.

QFT. The good lagg deepstacked players will often be drawing to crazy backdoor hands because their chances of getting paid off big are so good. Not being afraid to bet a full buyin on the river with a backdoored 7-high flush is a good quality to have in PLO...
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

Position.
i can see that. my point is if he's raising the crapola of a hand that is hand 3 I'd rather raise this reasonable holding out of position

Salsa do you only play Omaha? No Holdem.

The Omaha games are pretty good right now because of all of the Hold'em players who try to play it like NLHE and the lack of easy to find good literature.

Salsa do you only play Omaha? No Holdem.
I made my first 10k from casino whoring, then my next 50k from playing holdem. At the start of my holdem life, I was like 25NL and 50NL back when party hadn't split and you had like 4 reloads a month and unlimited multipoker bonuses. Then I went to bodog when their games were still fishy as hell.

After mid nov 2006, I ran into a wall (no surprise this was when the 'ban' came in force). Kept banging my head into the wall for about 2 months trying to win @ holdem, and realized it wasn't working and I had to do something about it. That something was omaha.

I like omaha so much more than NL holdem, but if I had the skill to beat 200NL like I did not very long ago, I'd play it too. I play NL holdem tourneys though... bodog guaranteed tourneys are a goldmine

 I just don't like hand 2.

I think the only hand paying you off there is Td9d.

one thing that's a little "tough" about current low stakes PLO on line games (in my limited experience) is that people either GET IT or they don't... and you have to play totally differently against the two types.

GETS IT is here defined as "knows when non-nuts aren't good"
