Omaha bubble - should i have played any different

<< < (2/3) > >>

LongshanksED:
It"s bit a bad beat story

I was just wondering if I played this badly on the bubble. Especially knowing that a short stack has folded and will be in the bb in 1 hands time is it right to make a play against a guy that is incapable of folding a hand pre flop. And especially the swings that can occour in Omaha

AMRN:
depends what you"re playing for.... to limp into the money, or to go deep.  

If this was Holdem, and you were on the bubble, and you had a guy who would be all in on his next BB, would you fold AA/KK in an unopened pot just to make sure you scrape into the cash?  Same scenario. 

You shoudn"t worry about being the bubble boy if you have a good hand a good chance to make a big increase to your stack this late in a tourney.

the bubble is for the other players to worry about

raise preflop

i think this is more of a bad beat story than a strategy thread though

Def a bad beat thread but Il add my own 2 cents neway.  I dnt think u shud raise this hand p/f 100% of the time, I split between limping and raising.  PLO is such a position based game that playing too high a % of swollen pots oop is a huge leak.  Rades shud never b limp/folding when he has position on you in this spot.  In low stakes plo, if u think u r a fave over the table then Im fine with taking a flop and getting ur opponents to put their money in bad!

As played, I also dnt like ur river bet.  What is the reasoning for not shipping w/ that stack - they r not folding nething for 2200 that they r calling for 1200!  Def not getting max value w/ tht bet in the long term!
