  1. The only two reads on this hand are that one player had Aces and the other has Kings. Should I be folding this hand?

  2. whoah. i mean i dont think id ever fold AA with 100bbs or less but like shiiiit those r as bare as they can get. im not super experienced at omaha im waiting to see what any one good says
     
  3. no
     
  4. i mean i only play ring, but id imagine id want a big stack in a PLO FO....a lot more important to have your opponents well covered in plo than nlhe.....just ship it in, _UK is probably gonna fold here and hope the flop is 222....at this buyin I don;t think you can legitimize folding AA in this spot, no matter how bare they are
     
  5. with your aces being so bare, and with your read of someone else having the other two aces, I'd say you can find a fold here......its pretty early still......i doubt that either of the other players have hands as bare as you.....
  6. I'm probably not calling here, my edge in omaha is in post flop play though so that's why I fold here.

    Edit - Just actually looked at HH and saw you raised pot after 3 limpers. After three limpers with bare aces like this I usually limp behind or min raise and only continue the flop with a set... I hate aces in omaha though rarely play them aggressively unless they're double suited with cards that work together as well.

  8. i wouldnt fold here
     
  9. It's a fold, my opinion isnt that valid, but there are so many bad players in omaha tourns(admittedly dont play $50 but ive heard they are also pretty terrible) you can get it in better than this situation! AA is just one pair...in omaha one pair doesnt win often, and if someone has the other AA(which is VERY plausible) then you are in absolute all sorts with no connectivity what so ever!

    go the 345r flop, you should (might) be good : )
