|
| First time to play this horrible game. Got AAK5 DS raise the pot, reraised by so called pro David chiu, I capped $60 and there 5 ppl in the hand! A guy hit runner runner 9s and trip 9s won the monster pot. The game is just like that for whole session. I saw this david guy consitently raise,re-raise with crappy gap connectors. This game is worse than baccarat, ppl just gamble with anything suited,connected. Now tell me it's more skillful game. |

| full tilt doesn't offer NL omaha, so either you are talking about NL omaha hi/lo, or play money. |

| Yeah cap Omaha is going to be the donk's wet dream. Give them a game where drawing is King and a cap to keep them from going broke on a bad draw. I assume the variance is going to be pretty high to begin with, but in the long run it should pay off well. |

| u lot dont make sense? how can u complain that u lost wit ur aces, this isnt texas hold em, aces arent worth as much in omaha, omaha is about the draws and re draws which is y it is good 2 hav suited connectors and double suited connectors, if u cant deal with aces losing in omaha then go back to hold em, lol they'l probably lose there aswel |

No wonder we don't make sense to you. You didn't bother to read what was written prior to your response. We already established it's a drawing game. It's very certain that in his situation all 5 people at the table didn't have cards which warranted seeing a capped pot PF.
Not only that, but the rest of your statement didn't even make sense with what he said. Omaha is a drawing game. Yes, but what draws do you have pre-flop? Pre-flop, AAxx DS is going to be the best starting hand type you can have. Is it a monster favorite like AA in hold'em? Nope. But you are still getting your money with the best hand.
Does that make more sense for you? |

| I played NLHM long enough to lay down set of As at river with all-in bet and draws getting there. I have no compliants. My ponit is this game you can't make plays, as the hand I mentioned, the guy with 67910 has no way to call J23 rainbow flop, let alone winning the monster. I would have take down the pot with the best hand, now it's just crapshot. |
