    On the river you have 7 cards to make a 5 card hand, on the turn you only have 6, and flop, just 5 to play with.

    That explains it.

    Double time between 8pm and midnight on weekdays - prime moaning time!!!!

    You must have a lot of spirit coming back from an outdraw to the chip lead 22 times.

    No i lost twice. Shouldnt you be suprising us all by just how much you make at the lower micro stakes.?

    Never laughed so hard except when you posted that ohama hand where you got completely owned and were spewing about his call!

    U want me to tell u how much I make?

    1k in my last four sessions combined, but it's not always that good ;)

    I am useless at omaha, I play it for fun maybe an hour at 5p/10p level at the start of every session.

    The call or series of calls was abit krazy though. Sole read.

    This has been said many times but i will say it again.. you always remember the beats on the river and never the time you get lucky.
