I don't know what the guy had because he only called my value bet and kept 18 cents behind but I think I played the hand perfectly. I am guessing he probably had something like AAJ3 or AAJ5. Hard to tell. Maybe he had 33 or 55. I guess I'll never know. But still, nice outcome considering we were both above the buy-in limit when we clashed.

A very nice pot to win and well done to you. He must have had some kind of Jack and probably a flush draw of some kind, in my opinion. It is always infuriating when you dont see their cards and, like you said, we'll never know what he had

Yep. Looked a lot like a smaller boat, if he was a rookie maybe even a lone Jack. But he was the first to enter the pot preflop, so could easily play his position instead of holding a AAxy type of hand.

Omaha is not my favorite type of game, but all I can say watching how he was playing his hand is that he has had probably a big paar like AA, QQ or maybe even TT with Jack and couldn't fold till showdown. The question is only why didn't he go allin, what for did he keep that 18 c behind if he was so sure .... ? No idea what is going on in people heads in such a moment.

he could even have 3 3,who can know!but I think also,that he had big pair,like AA!but he must had something when he paid almost everything (except thatr 0,18 $),so dont think that would pay on straight draw!so he could have full house,like you,but too bad that we didnt see that cards!

A Q A J or Q T K J
By default mucked hand won't be shown on BOOM replayer. You can't retrieve your opponent's mucked hand that went to showdown in your hand history or visual replayer on PokerStars client?

This was a great flop for you, top two pair and the second nut flush draw. You got a bit lucky on the river after he hit his straight but you were pot committed by this time. As for the other guy, he must have had a King Ten sort of hand with maybe two pair.
very nice win there Machine and that what the guy had we can ony assume but no matter its important that u had it in ur favour. Keep it up and good luck.

I guess everyone will have to speculate on that hand. But im pretty sure it wasnt a flush draw calling with, that doubletop said. Why calling the river bet, if you were after a flush and you didnt get it ???
No problem teddybears! No limit omaha would be pretty crazy but why not! I would like to be able to defend my made hands with overbets sometimes. In PLO most of the time when you have the nuts on the flop it's no longer the nuts on the turn or the river so you rarely have easy spots to play like in hold'em.
Agreed Buva13 who cares what he had, good thing is he didn't have quads

You are not the only one over betting There is a big field with players like that. I believe over betting is the last spot before the bluff Be careful dont turn like gus hansen. He is a fine example for it.
Overbetting means betting more than the pot, Mober. It helps to polarize ranges in hold'em and a lot of successfull tournament and cash game players use it in no limit. But it's hard to master and you have to do it with air sometimes if you want your opponents to call you when you have it in a marginal spot.
