omg scoop - Page 4

hmm that might be true. ;D
I guess if you are a PLO Hi/lo fish as me, many hands look appealing althought they probably suck :D

12k at second break, im so card dead this whole tourney, dunno how im staying alive :'(

edit: at the 5r

im the exact opposite with plo i look at a hand and if it looks confusing i just fold it out of frustration.

i cant ever play omaha mtts unless im 1 tabling because of this reason. I only play like suited rolls and other nut hands pf in omaha otherwise

you're not supposed to play tight per say, but you are supposed to scoop pots not split...you should often be mucking the current nuts on flop if you dont have a chance to scoop and redraw

just play only A2xx, a3xx, a4xx, a5xx, flat call pf and muck if you dont hit a strong draw to scoop on the flop

i need to read a stud book before the stud scoop event so i have any idea how to play stud because its the only poker variant that i dont understand at all.

any good suggestions?

this is basically what i do but i muck a4xx and a5xx and raise the others pf

should i just flatcall with all of these and not raise?

Ok just busted in the Omaha tourney - I shouldn't have played that I guess. =[

19.5k in plo8
there's some rungood for ya

some guy in the $5 rebuy is running over me though :s

Id definitely just flat call pf, with anything except AAxx with a low card. Thing is, hands like A258 have great strength in multiway pots but its almost 50/50 against a random hand heads up. Often if you let the fish see flop with crap, they'll find some crap (like bottom two pair, weak flush/str8 draw) chase and pay you off essentially drawing dead

sucks man :|

bleh, still 16k at 5R -.-

I busted from 5R, meh, couldnt get anything going

Cant hit a flop in PLO8 yet, still around 5k

9970@break in the plo8

Was up to 27K , now down to 13K after some fcked up suckout + epic spew the very next hand after. Fucking tourneys, such a fucking waste of time.

23k

Tourneys are seriously the most tilting shit ever. Play for 823498347897238949823498 hours then lose all in 1 hand.

I wonder how I had the patience and willingness back in the days to win so many of them. Because nowadays I get so easily bored of them and start spewing senselessly.

15K @ break 5R now.
