Very simple Omaha question

    In the small blinds what hands are not worth your investment in a limped pot say getting least 7-1 assuming we are at a table with several respectable players?

    Are we basically looking at everything but total trash or is there a more definable range?

    Im no omaha expert but you need to remember you are going to be out of position for the whole hand. Therefore I like to call with suited ace/double suited and high pairs. What is always in my mind is the question "Can I draw to the nuts" .. draws in multi way pots oop are not worth the money limping with otherwise imo

    i think you can pretty much call with anything as long as you are sure you will have the discipline to makes numerous folds from this position as while you are getting good value you also will lose alot of money from this position without discipline post flop..again, im no omaha expert myself as you know nicky!!

    call with almost anything, there are very few hands you would throw away with pot odds like that in omaha. but i agree with mormank, you need discipline if you are gonna limp with rubbish. only hands i wouldnt play from the small blind in this situation are low trips with no suit or 269k all o/s.

    gettin 7/1 i'd call with anything, except the obvious

    24k hands on Ipoker/Tribeca 6max PLO, my VPIP is about 35 from all positions, 65-75VPIP from the small blind depending on stakes since more pots are raised pf at 1/2 and above.
    I play tighter than most ppl.

    any 4 cards will do but u must be able to lay down after i perfer to have A suited at least in my hd


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,434 ✭✭✭cardshark202


    calling any 4 is a huge leak.
    my range for completing would probably be similiar to lafs, maybe even tighter

    I guess you should play about half as many hands as you would if it was limped to you on the button.

    I'm just under 60% on my PT stats for the SB, and about 36% overall.

    any four cards usually... quad draw

    i dont like to limp trash hands in the sb. Purely because the irritation of constantly check/folding 4m that position is too much. I'll limp any suited ace, TTxx or better, or a rundown hand. I'll go nuts 4m the sb if i have a double suited run down and usually jam the pot.
