    Ever flop the nuts and lay in down on the flop?

    I did, and here it is


    PL Omaha hi/lo Home game, my basement.

    Dealt to me

    Don bets $15 preflop, I call , Kevin calls

    Flop

    Don bets $30 on the flop, i just call, Kevin makes it $90, Don reraises to $300.

    I have a dilemma, though i have flopped the nuts am i ahead at this point? I stand up, Walk around thinking about it. I even went to take a piss to think about it.

    What am i up against?

    Well i know what im up against, Don has and a 3 and 5. thats what i put him on. I told my self i am dodging a machine gun if i go with this hand. He flopped a nut Flush draw with a full blown wrap with an uncounterfeitable low draw. Im way behind!

    I fold.

    Sure as shit, my waiting and thinking caused Kevin to fold, because it had to be obvious what i had to them. He folds, i had to run it out.

    Don was mad i didnt call.



    Turn was an river was a

    Don shows

    I would have lost over $1500 if would have stayed with this hand.

    Flop the nuts? Hell i was WAY behind!

    Nice fold, Timmy!

    This weekend.. I flopped quad 2's and I rivered with quad 8's. The 2's doubled my winnings to $523,000 and the 8's were crazy, cause I flopped trips, and my opponent flopped trip 10's... so I figured I was screwed.. till the river.. and I got my last 8, so fing lucky.. I think if I had been the other guy.. I would have slit my throat.

    I did have an amazing weekend of poker.. and I got a ping pong table.. and now I am on my quest to be the Worlds Greatest PingPong player....!!! (pray for my soon to be ex friends)

    let's face it, flopping top set in O8 is so far from the nuts. temp nuts shouldn't even count! best you can hope for with that flop is you somehow live to chop the pot or you get nearly perfect running cards.

    what did your friend Kevin raise with after that flop?

    a set is only mediocre in omaha. if it is you got lucky. I've laid down sets many times. I hate it...but usually it ends up being the right call.
