Whole Pot - Just for Me Posted by rebecca , under: Omaha Hi/Lo Pot Limit, Omaha Poker Hands
If you play Omaha Hi/Lo poker you always want to play against two more players. In most cases, if you play against just one player you will split the pot. So, your amount of chips will stay the same. But, the best scenario will be if you win the whole pot, high and low.
My hole cards in this Omaha Hi/Lo Pot Limit poker hand were Kd-3d-4c-6c. That means double suited for high and 3-4-6 for low. Flop brought me two more diamonds. One more diamond and I will have a Flush. Excellent, turn card was also diamond, so I raised. Since my opponent called, I thought – oh no, it will be split pot again. After the river he called my bet again.
The truth was that I made a mistake. My opponent was going for a high too, and I won the whole pot. I can’t blame him for trying to win high, because he had a flush too. And since just four players were sitting on that table, I would try with his cards too. He was aware of possibilities that maybe I had a better flush, so he never re-raised, but rather just followed my bets. That was a clever move.
