    i was in the cutoff seat and limped behind several early limpers, unraised preflop...i wonder if i misplayed this hand or did kiki ??? the only mistake i think i might have made was betting too much on the flop, thus not leaving me enough ammunition to fire a big bet on turn, maybe should have waited for the turn to make the big pot bet ???

    what do ya think ?

    I see your point about leaving ammo for turn but the turn can screw your hand pretty badly so getting it in when you know you are best is smart.

    Sadly, I believe he would have chased the flush no matter what you did especially after he caught top pair (oMGoMGoMG) on the turn plus Ace high flush draw. That's just how people play in omaha ring games or the ones I always find myself participating in it seems.

    hey:

    I know I keep repeating myself on this point, but I really feel
    your biggest mistake was calling pre-flop. Your hand was way
    too weak for a call.

    In position you have two good choices with a hand like that, fold
    or raise. Personally, I like fold more, but some of my more aggressive
    friends tell me I am losing too much money by not getting frisky with
    mediocre hands in position.

    Top set on the flop there is very vulnerable and if you decide to protect
    it you have to go strong. There are times when I flop like that when I
    will check and then fold to the scare card. The advantage this seemingly
    weak play has is that should you get lucky and have the flush card pair
    the board, most players will not put you on the boat and you will get all
    their chips.

    *disclaimer*
    the above is solely the opinion of a donk and should not be confused with good advice
