i never came back after this. running in lucky nut-flush and other nasty stuff (also steamraising too much). its not the first time i see this person have incredible luck, but hitting the one-outer with only one card to come was pretty sick if yask me...

actually i dont think the person in the first hand misplayed her hand. myself would have preferred raising the hell out of it on the flop to make 2 pair fold. but well. i guess you can slowplay that (she was calling pretty much any bet i made on the flop. i was really surprised to see her have a set. i might have been betting the turn again with less then a set. well played actually in this case, i wouldve folded to an raise on the flop for sure) and hitting the lower full house is always hard to get away from. especially with blind at 300 and a lower chipcount. still it was impertinent that she hit that last 3 there IMO.
the second hand was very risky for me from the start. i raised with ace high and pushed the rest without holding any flush draw myself. i know people go for stuff like that in the 1 $ games.
so: no complaints actually. and tomorrow i will be back.
and yeah: i love the double suited hands. thats a ten percent chance to hit a flush! double suited aces are pretty much always raise here, even with only marginal straight draws going with it.
unsuited straights are always hard to protect in low limit omaha games. i saw people chasing with literally any flush draw there. or even (re)raising that against my made straight.

You can win a lot with omaha and lose a lot, too. It's because the many outs and tne many donks who are playing omaha. There can happen very bad beats...
<------ time to take a break
