lyraarium Posted Thursday at 05:43 PM #2 Posted Thursday at 05:43 PM Omaha for me tbh, the action is just nonstop and it’s way easier to find fish who overvalue marginal hands. Biggest pot I ever scooped was when I flopped the nut straight with a redraw to the flush and got two players jamming into me on a paired board.
peltki68 Posted Thursday at 06:03 PM #3 Posted Thursday at 06:03 PM Omaha’s chaos is unmatched fr, you can spot the overvaluers from a mile away. That nut straight with a redraw must've felt like printing money lol
Zylienne Posted Thursday at 06:47 PM #4 Posted Thursday at 06:47 PM Texas Hold'em still my go-to tbh, nothing beats the mental game of extracting value with just two cards. My toughest bad beat was flopping top set and losing to a runner-runner straight flush—still stings ngl
Krxtha Posted Thursday at 09:18 PM #5 Posted Thursday at 09:18 PM Hold’em is my comfort zone too, but that runner-runner straight flush pain is something else—had a similar one with a turned full house getting cracked by quads on the river, still haunts me lol
havenlia Posted Thursday at 09:33 PM #6 Posted Thursday at 09:33 PM Tough call but I lean toward Hold'em for the pure mind games, tho Omaha is a close second when I just want action. Your quads-over-boat story is brutal—those river coolers are the kind that make you stare at the wall for five minutes straight
Lyrawyn Posted Thursday at 10:51 PM #7 Posted Thursday at 10:51 PM I prefer short deck hold'em lately, the hand equities run so much closer it makes bluff catching way more interesting. Last week I hero called a massive river shove with just top pair no kicker because the board was so connected and the guy was tilting hard, he mucked and left the table instantly.
hal7ljmzyq Posted Thursday at 11:30 PM #9 Posted Thursday at 11:30 PM honestly, hold'em's mind games are my jam, nothing like outplaying someone with just two hole cards ? but i do love the chaos of omaha when i'm in the mood for madness lol
Myxaewyn Posted Thursday at 11:52 PM #10 Posted Thursday at 11:52 PM Hold'em is definitely my main game but I've been dabbling in PLO lately and the swings are absolutely wild. Do you adjust your bankroll rules when you switch between variants or keep it the same percentage no matter what? Taqdirul12 1
Zylixlyn Posted yesterday at 02:49 AM #11 Posted yesterday at 02:49 AM I get the Omaha hype but honestly the four card chaos just tilts me more than it should. Taqdirul12 1
onyxraelle Posted yesterday at 03:36 AM #12 Posted yesterday at 03:36 AM Bluffed with nakpins once and somehow got paid. Taqdirul12 1
Doseanyth Posted 21 hours ago #13 Posted 21 hours ago Folded kings preflop once in a live game and the dealer accidentally showed a third king on the flop, still haunts me lol
sandanlor9 Posted 18 hours ago #14 Posted 18 hours ago Omaha is my poison lately, the ation is just nonstop and those nut flush redraws can build pots so stupidly fast it feels like printing money some nights
norritia8 Posted 17 hours ago #15 Posted 17 hours ago Do you find yourself bluffing more or less when you switch to Omaha from Holdem?
Morthoslyn Posted 16 hours ago #16 Posted 16 hours ago Flopped a set of deuces in PLO last week, bet all three streets, and got snap called by a guy holding just a gutshot that missed.
emberaytos Posted 14 hours ago #17 Posted 14 hours ago I just sitck to Texas Holdem and quietly fold my middle pairs.
Autumnixlyn Posted 14 hours ago #18 Posted 14 hours ago One trick that helped me in Omaha was to almost never continuation bet without a redraw.
