 Getting freerolled sucks. Omaha taught me a lot about how to not spew chips when at best I am looking at a chop.
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.

Saw a guy get freerolled for $300 in a live 4-8 game once, lucky for him he split.

Anyway, after the 5th bet you need to make sure you have the nuts and there are no freerolls!
