 |
|
Is it just me? or has omaha turned into the battle of the flush draws.Almost every hand, you get about 3 or 4 people in the pot with flush draws all chasing. People actually bet on who has the better flush draw. And on the river when the flush doesn't come for either of them, the guy with 2 pair who was getting the correct odds to call wins. You think there's something wrong with this way of playing???
It's not only flushes, people try for straight draws as well... |

| they are just your normal donk that thinks that a flush draw is 50/50 agains most hands and that they should play it like the nuts. the people that i get the biggest kick out of are the ones that call with a 7 high flush draw in a 4 handed pot. don't u think there is another flush donkey in the pot, with a better flush than u. Silly little donkeys. |

| Unless you are holding the Nut Flush draw without being 4 of a suit, I can understand, but no reason to be chasing a draw without already having 2pair, set or straight..... same odds apply, But if you already have something you can rest a biut easier freerolling. |

| Flushes are ridiculous...I saw two guys with 3 spades in their hand each and they both flopped a flush!! one had the ace, the other had the king. It just so damn funny watching someone chase a flush draw by calling 3/4- full pot bets and they dont make it...lol |

Usually they are thinking they are playing hold'em where a King high flush is much stronger than a King high Omaha flush. |

| I've always found it hilarious how big of a raise they will call to draw to their flush and how small of a bet they'll fold to if they miss on the river. |
