I'm posting here 'cos my questions are so noobish!

Please look at this hand. I think it's the worst hand of a relatively successful session although i'm making noob mistakes. What kind of odds do I need to draw to a low with almost no high potential? Notice he has $11.50 on the flop. Was the flop call or turn call correct/incorrect?

What are the odds necessary to draw to a nut low if

a) all in on flop
b) all in on turn

assuming I'm certain i will get exactly half the pot if i make the low?

THANKS!!!

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point

Preflop: I would try to limp and see the flop, no reason to build a pot with this preflop hand
Flop: Fold, you are drawing for 1/2 the pot, you need runner runner to pick up this pot assuming he has at least 2 pair.

Post in the Omaha forum next time please

You need massive odds for this. You cant play for just half the pot in PLO8 unless people are just minbetting or its like a 10 way pot or something.
