The Flop & Draw of Omaha Poker

Video Transcript

You know in any freeze out tournament there's a time when you have just enough chips left that you're going to push or you're going to fold. Unless you happen to be the chip leader for pretty much the whole tournament. Well, in Pot Limit Omaha, I submit that you should do this, when you have eight or less times the total blinds. So, if the blinds are fifty and a hundred that means the total blinds are one fifty. If you have less than twelve hundred chips left, you need to be thinking push or fold. So let's talk about that, don't ever limp. I'll just deal some sample hands out and tell you what I would do. These are all random. Queen, jack, six, deuce, usually I would fold that. Look at that. Ace, king, six, six and the ace and king are suited. Push, bet the pot, and go ahead and stay in. Even if the flop is suspicious, you'll be pot committed. You want to get all your chips in. If you can't them all in before the flop, get them all in on the flop. That hand, I would fold. Here is a hand, it's another fold. Look at that. King, jack, nine, three. I might push with this, I might go ahead and bet the flop. Even though there's no real suitedness, as we say. Now, ace, king, queen, ten. King and queen suited, we'd definitely push. You get the idea, if you have three cards that work together instead of four, push it in, stay in, hope for the best.
