There will be times in Pot Limit Omaha, when the best play is to get all your chips in on the flop. And, the way that would happen is you like the flop, you bet the pot, your opponent likes the flop, raises the pot, comes around to you. And, typically at this point you can re-raise the pot and you'll have all your chips are almost or almost all your chips in. And, what's the situation where you want to say I commit? I'm giving all my chips in. Well, here's an example. Your starting hand is double paired, double suited connected. It's aces and kings, spades and clubs. And, the flop has come king, queen, jack. What do you have? You have a set of kings, you have a royal flush draw. You do not at this time have the nuts. The nuts on this flop is ace, ten. But, if you're opponent is raising the pot with ace ten and no redraws you are in very good shape. Because, what you have. Let's look at your outs. You have, the other king that's one out. You have the other nine spades that gives you ten outs. And, you can draw to a straight. If a ten comes off, you have a straight. So, take away the ten of spades. Add the other three tens, that's thirteen outs. Thirteen outs with two shots of those, actually gives you an advantage in the hand. You are fifty-two percent to win the hand at this time. So, definitely get all your chips in there. Anytime, you have thirteen outs or more on the flop you're in good stead.
