Sick pot!
So I'm not complaining about the results, just couldn't believe this hand and thought some of you might get a kick out of it. I know the pot seems small compared to the stakes you guys play, but considering this is a shortstacked 10PLO table, this was a nice pot that I could've had slide my way. We get some nice pots now and then, but usually it's two bigstacks with great hands, not 5 guys with all sorts of crap.

Comments on the hand as far as analysis: I'd been watching CO raise limper(s) over and over and folks just kept laying it down and then he showed down 1 or 2 of these with crap starting hands. So I was looking to raise behind him with anything QQ+ or good rundown, or call behind with something I felt like I might be able to outplay him with HU. I had almost zero expectation of more than 1 other caller based on how the last 3/4 orbits had gone at this table. When they all call I'm pretty much just looking for the fold button 'til I see the lovely flop.
I pretty much think it may have been a case of everyone at the table being sick of not hitting crap for so many hands in a row - I mean I was about to get off this table because there just wasn't much action, pots were all tiny.
Bonus: In case you're wondering, I ran the #'s and my hand was actually ahead preflop (somehow 33%?), and ofcourse flop and turn (67%) I'm gaining equity.
Man I love Omaha now, Hold'em just seems so boring.
