he had the only hand that could beat you, very unlucky i dont play hi/lo much but look at his betting pattern - preflop- pot raise flop - check - call turn - check- min raise river - pot raise when that king came on river, he was sure he had you by your balls

I cannot believe you are taking this with fun! I mean is a good thing taking with fun but... If i where you I probably had broken the computer or my head (Or both) I think this hand qualify for bad beat... really unluky... I'm not an expert on Omaha (needer holdem) but you raised and call with that flop... I'm not quite sure if that was a good call on Omaha... I'm just saying that to learn (me, not you) good luck!

When you are playing with good bankroll management this is only 1 buyin i lost, these things dont bother me no more cause i have now a very good roll, yeah i took the risk, but alot of times its pays off how i play omaha h/l this time it failled but i take the rough with the smooth if the king didnt come on the river i would of folded, ( just for the record)

Well thats really a bad thing, very unlucky. But as you said, you have a nice roll and are now keeping an eye on good BR management. So this will not hurt you too much and you will recover. Better Luck next time.

Good attitude about losing a big hand Dozn! I think that would bother me more than it bothered you! Do you think he played his quads well? I have played Omaha but very little of the HI/LO type, do you think that his aggression was a good move? Normally in hold ‘em I slow play flopped quads to try and extract the maximum value from them.

I simply love pot limit omaha, but i only play the hi version, not 8 or better, i think you can make a much more profit playing the hi version instead of the hi/low version
Still, nowadays i rarely play no limit holdem since i hate playing at over 6 tables on my monitor, an i really think if you want to be a profitable player on nlhe you need to play at least 6 tables at once...
I've only played nlhe back on full tilt poker as rush poker, where with only 4 entires you could play an insane number of hands per gour I really miss rush poker...
