Mind Teaser...How can you have the nuts on 4th street and be drawing dead in PLO??

SpencerJames

Can anyone come up with the hand where Player A has the nuts on the turn and is drawing dead??

It is possible. Also it can be done 3 handed I think.

I assume the nuts in this case has to be a set?

Hyzepher

I would of thought a straight as the nut set always has outs on the river

Flushdraw

Yeah thats what i was going to ask.

e.g QQ on a Qs 9s 7x 3x board?

phantom_lord

a set could never be drawing dead if it's the nuts on the turn.

I am pretty sure I have posted this before.

5 handed, you have top set KK vs other sets, 2 pairs and 2 flushdraws and wraps - the board cant pair for you on the river and the only cards left in the deck complete wither a flush or a straight for one of your opponents.

That makes sense - cant think how it could be done three handed though

i thought we were talking about being 3 handed?

BigCityBanker

also - it is possible to have the worst possible starting hand in PLO 2222 and still be 91% fav preflop

phantom_lord

that one seems easy. i think. gimmie a sec.

yeah 3456 w/o suits x 4.

SpencerJames

The Coo was telling me this.

I assumed it was a low straight vs 2 flush draws vs a higher wrap vs a set?

can anyone do out the hand. Its possible 4 handed and i think 3 handed

well seeing as I was the one who told the Coo about it

I have it on my other laptop at home so I will get it later and put it up, I have actually suggested it as an article topic to WPT mag.

Basically I think the board should read Ks 10s 7c 4c and you hold KK22

your four opponents hold cards containing combos of K1074 / QJ / 89 / 56 / with both flushdraws covered - it is not possible for the board to pair and every other card completes a straight or a flush

BB: 3d-5s-7s-8d
Seat 1: Ac-Ad-4c-4d
Seat 2: Kd-Ks-Td-Ts
Seat 3: As-Qs-Jh-9h
Seat 4: Kh-Th-6d-6c

Flop: Tc-6s-4s.

Turn: Kc.

Id still be rooting for the hold,disguisting fish that I am.

Once in the Merrion, I'm on the BB, had 7744, flop comes 447, turn 7, river 3, 9 players called the BB, a raise ,3 callers, seat 4 goes all in called by3, I go all in, called by 2, I lose to 4th seat who had straight flush! A photo was taken of this and I have it somewhere.
