lollol wtf???? dumbass call and then sick suckout blahhh

No reason for him to play that hand that way.. Just a donk.

Coulda saved urself by not raising ur hand PF, all u have is a pair of Ks, n in no way is that a strong enough starting hand in PLO to raise PF, yeah u flopped ur set n got unlucky that he hit runner runner on u but after u see the A on turn n river may be able to lay down ur Ks full, or if not then maybe coulda still had some chips left. I see this every day in the omaha games on here n micro stakes ppl raising big pairs n it shouldnt be done.

He called w/2pr which is pretty standard in omaha.

ya never know just wing it its all good and fun

ya he could of been tilting

No one can explain my crazy calls with garbage, so I won't expect to explain someone else's decent call.

I'm guessing he clicked the "call" button. Otherwise, I don't know how he could have called there.

haha that chit made me laugh outloud

I could listen to bad beat stories over and over and over and over and over and zzzzzzzzz...........

I would have called too, and I know nothing about omaha lol

How you gonna bitch when you raised. You know in omaha people are not going to fold most hands LOL Then when you got reraised you should have thought about laying them down or not pushing.

Its just a donk, however, ....

why does this omaha look so much like no-limit?

very ez. slow play thinks ur all donks and has a huge stack (no doubt frm sucking out) and has the chips to maybe loseto you but beat the others for a reduced total chip risk. He cameout firing and was hoping to use barrel 2 and 3 to scare people off or win it out right with the hjigher cards (Aq). Big stacks make great donks. Small stacks make very bad donks. Good play by you but any time u play into a big stack ur in trouble.
I learned this last nbight with KK 30th place in cash to 60th and out - no cash when I challenged big stack all in over top with pocket kings - I lose to AQon river ace. I coulda called raise or cked it down to see that i had a loser in my hand. but i like the odds. cost me $12 atleats - but coulda made $300 if i win.

Raising with KK is absolutely correct. People saying to limp just flat don't know how to play omaha. KK is a vulnerable hand, which is precisely why you raise, you want to get HU before the flop. Letting people just limp behind you is just stupid. They both made awful calls and got lucky, get em next time.

You asked "can someone explain this call to me"

Its not a dumbass call and here is why ...

Preflop 5 people put 575 chips in for a total pot of 2875

You shoved your remaining 1125 into this pot (the correct move)

Unfortuately for you that shove is considerably less then a half pot sized bet ... its not enough to protect your hand.

2875 (pot) + 1125 (your allin) = 4000

Having to call 1125 to win 4000 is fairly automatic.

cause it's the internet lol

lol thats a tough beat. not sure how that happened other than him tryna cool you down!!

That was pretty bold, I guess he knew you had 2-pair and wanting to see if his ace would come up. The other ace was just a k1ller!!

Tough go... I try to raise x3 bb w/ kk then push all-in on the flop if an ace doesn't hit. He prob woulda called nevertheless; tough position, imo.

It was a dumb call on the flop. But that's omaha for you.
