new to omaha

beeasyonme

im new to omaha so i tried the freeroll today, i was not doing very well and had not hit many boards. The hand previous bettyeddie calls a max raise pre with 10,2,4,5 rainbow the flop came 10D2D6D he min raises and then reshoves and manages to win with 2 pair. This hand i have KK23 double suited so in need of a win, i max raise pre and i have the 2nd nut draw and a over pair twitching checks and bettyeddie min raises so i figure they are weak so i max raise again. They both come over the top and i have no fold equity so i call, miss and go out. I know i have just under 40BB so maybe a win was not majorly important at this stage, but the blinds increase very quickly and the table was furious.

I cant fault the play really that flops massive for you so no probs there.

You're probably just unfortunate that its a freeroll and people aren't going to be playing all that seriously. The guy in question is an example of this!

If you're new to the game and can afford it then I'd suggest playing low limit pot limit omaha cash on the site as it's an excellent place to learn for as small a buy in as 40p!

I wouldn't recommend raising so high pre as its not a great starting hand for PLO. The Flop isn't that amazing either as your behind to a higher flush draw any two pair and a set. The raise you throw in looks like a set or ace high flush draw but that size raise is only getting called by better hands than yours!
I would cal pre call the flop if it pairs fold if the last heart comes dont go over the top for value as your still not getting called by much.
