A cheap ride in this family pot with 5s9c3s8c
Oh the joy of an ass-wiping omaha hand
This hand is worth 8.5 points in the hutchinson point count system, 1 for the 5 high flush change, 1.5 for the 9 high flush change, 1 for the straight chance with 5 and 3 and 5 for the straight change between five, eight and nine. Not really a combination of real killer cards. The colors look fancy but it is quite a shit hand, I would consider wiping my ass with it, but it doesn’t go much further.
Yes I get to play for free!
As the action comes to me, the BB, it seems no one raised, so I happily check the hand and hope for a poker miracle! And the flop come Jh5d5c, oh the joy! I make my little happy dance and I get 1 BB into the huge pot *coughs*! Everyone calls and we move to a 10h river. I once again bet 1 full BB into this even bigger pot and once again everyone calls (exiting eh?).
A most terrifying river!
Oh disaster strikes on the river! All my big bets are now stuck in the pot and a Qh comes! Now all sorts of flushes are possible, a billion of different straights aswell. I have no choice to make a scared check and await the results. Player 2 checks aswell, and he should have bet at least 1/2 of the pot here, I mean who won’t believe him on such a river? But he doesn’t, and I win the glorious .40$ pot, bang!
