Simple Omaha Hand

DeadParrot

I'm still dipping my toes in the waters of Omaha and to be honest might be lacking some fundamentals, I feel I have a decent enough grasp of the game but certain hands come up like the one below and I end up tanking it instead of taking my time.

Havent got the HH here but its a 5 handed .25/.5 game on PPP

Button (Me) $54ish
Villain 1 $20 UTG
Villain 2 91ish BB

Dealt to me Ah7h9sKs
2 limpers and the blinds so I pot it $2.75 ( I know these figures mightn't be 100% accurate)
Everyone folds bar UTG and the BB who flat call
flop comes 6h, 8h, 2c
2 checks and I pot again
Villain 1 repots (or as close) allin, Villain 2 reraises again which would put me all in.
now I know I'm against more than likely top set/2 pair/straight draw/flush draw, top set the most likely holding.
I'm drawing to the nut straight and nut flush, am I right to call?

Yes, you don't think to even think twice about it.

Edit: Even against the worst type of hands like a set, you eassily have the pot odds to call. If your opponents have other type of hands especially ones where they could have similar cards you could in fact be in very good shape, especially in a 3-way hand.

fair enough....if stacks where deeper would this still apply?


I did call btw, turn paired the 2 and river gave me the flush he had A889 and villain 1 had J86x. I was berated in the chatbox for calling, it seemed standard to me but just wanted to double check

Flipper

Yes you beat him into the pot. This is standard omaha stuff you'll come across all the time.

Call everytime and if stacks are deeper call everytime.

i dont like the potting it preflop though, you realise AKds isnt that
good a hand right?
you have a bare flush draw and are usually drawing to 7 clean outs, wait i actually see that you have hit a dream flop with the NFD and OESD, yes i def get it all in here.
I dont get stacked with just a bare flush draw though in omaha as you will only have 7 clean outs twice and open to redraws. here its super-standard though as you have 4tens,4fives,5 more hearts to the nuts. the 2h fills a boat as will the turn pairing if its not a heart.

lol preflop is more than fine AK79ds is a fine hand, especially on the button.

As long as you realise that raising this hand preflop otb in a limped pot is almost mandatory its so standard. Limping is fine too but if stacks are deep I like raising here.
