Omaha H/L Lunchtime Tourney - Key Hand 1

[Jaded]

Going to post a few of the key hands I was involved in from today's Prima game, Fixed Limit Omaha H/L - $5 entry. Will try and give 12 hours or so in between hands to give us a bit of time for discussion, it's great to get other people's views as I'm fairly inexperienced in the game myself. :ok At this point, reads I have: Sacha is very good, despite the low chipstack - has looked good and seems to have been unlucky. Kirsty is loose and plays lots of stuff, sometimes with less than premium hands. Dainiux is loose aggressive and looks like one of the better players. No real reads on other 4. I'm playing tight (honestly!) and have only voluntarily been involved in 2 pots, both of which I've won fairly small amounts on. 32 mins in so have just made a slight profit in chips when you take my blinds into account. ** Game ID 1004979716 starting - 2006-10-26 13:02:50 ** $5 Omaha H/L Fixed[636614]:Table 2 [Multi Table Omaha H/L] (50.00|100.00 Fixed Limit - MTT) Real Money - diego13 sitting in seat 1 with $1350.00 - sacha06 sitting in seat 2 with $955.00 - JadedJ sitting in seat 3 with $1607.50 [Dealer] - petra15 sitting in seat 4 with $2522.50 - kirsty sitting in seat 5 with $1305.00 - tjaderized sitting in seat 6 with $960.00 - Dainiux sitting in seat 8 with $1950.00 petra15 posted the small blind - $25.00 kirsty posted the big blind - $50.00 ** Dealing card to JadedJ: 3 of Diamonds, Ace of Clubs, 7 of Clubs, 4 of Diamonds tjaderized folded Dainiux raised - $100.00 diego13 folded sacha06 called - $100.00 Me to go, call, raise, or fold?

Re: Omaha H/L Lunchtime Tourney - Key Hand 1 With O8 I see very little point in raising before the flop. Nevertheless, you have a nice double suited hand with good scooping potential. You want to see the flop but it's always a good idea to stay tight. Call.

Re: Omaha H/L Lunchtime Tourney - Key Hand 1 Call.. all day long for me.... Its not the most powerful hand, 2nd nut lo and you need a very specific flop to get a good hi which still may not be a nut hi.

Re: Omaha H/L Lunchtime Tourney - Key Hand 1 flat call for me as well :ok any low flop with different cards to yours will give you a hand with very good scooping potential . also as you are on the button position helps but till you see the flop its not worth pushing to much.

Re: Omaha H/L Lunchtime Tourney - Key Hand 1 I called, hit the 5 on the river for the wheel, bet after Dainiux checked and was called - he mucked his hand so no idea what he had, but I made $1000 from it, my first big hand of the tourney.
