    Default Just started playing a bit, some 10nl hands

    Hand 1
    Villain seems to be somewhat nitty and generally passive. Only other time I've seen him get aggressive was when he flatted my SB raise in the BB with a KKXX hand and raised me on the flop with his overpair (I called then called his shove on turn with an AAXX hand).

    I think its fine, but want to check that in Omaha world it still is.

    PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.10 BB (3 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (Button) ($8.80)
    SB ($10.15)
    BB ($4.65)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 9, 6, A, J
    Hero bets $0.30, SB calls $0.25, 1 fold

    Flop: ($0.70) 7, 8, 5 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $0.50, SB raises to $2.20, Hero raises to $7.30, SB raises to $9.85 (All-In), Hero calls $1.20 (All-In)


    Hand 2

    Given that my read is that most of the table will limp/call, do I still want to build a big pot PF with my hand?

    On a somewhat wet flop like this, do I still cbet into so many?

    PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Button ($6.55)
    SB ($3.85)

    UTG+1 ($9.15)
    MP1 ($9.60)
    MP2 ($10.30)
    CO ($15.20)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 2, A, A, K
    2 folds, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, CO calls $0.10, 2 folds, Hero bets $0.55, MP1 calls $0.45, MP2 calls $0.45, CO calls $0.45

    Flop: ($2.25) 6, 7, 10 (4 players)
    Hero ???


    Hand 3

    I assume flop is pretty bad here and I should just raise it up. For some reason I just felt like his cbet looked weak and I didnt want to scare him off when there weren't many scare cards for me. River with those odds, do I still call the paired board now he gets excited again?

    1 fine wondering why you question this one

    2 c/f I'd minraise or something smaller PF, not loving where stack sizes and pot will be when the table calls psr PF

    3 fold now I'd bet slightly bigger on turn

    hand 1 - wrong hand posted?

    hand 2 - I raise pre but with your stats prob check back is fine then give up on flop

    hand 3 - i don't like it but not folding getting 4/1, def just commit turn lots of bad cards

    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    1 - you have the nuts and the redraw to the nuttier nuts, i don't understand your question
    2 - you can check fold here, and preflop is questionable
    3 - I prefer flop raise, but i think either is fine. Turn you want to get as much money in the middle as you can - pot.

    Hand 1 I misread the hand. I thought I had the 2nd nuts and lost to the nuts, but I think he had a wrap and outdrew me to a better straight.

    Hand 2 - the nice thing about min-raising, or 3x is it opens the possibility of someone 3betting and you can get it in. It sucks to bloat the pot OOP, if this was double suited or AAT9 single suited I'm a lot more excited. Cbetting does not have the same weight as holdem. Snap c/f fist pump.

    Hand 3 - I'd just raise flop, he's not going to put much money in if he bricked, and I doubt he's getting away from an A with big kickers to the raise. Never folding river.
