Amazing
Amazing. Check this stat out. I went to Cardplayer.com. Make sure you check the O8 button. I was curious how well I played against the set of kings.
Him
[kskc6djh]
me
[2c3h4s5d]
Pre-flop equity:
Him: 63% on the high, 0% on the low.
Me: 37% on the high, 58% on the low.
Total:
Him: 36%
Me: 37%
So even pre-flop, with out anything, I am favored to win this pot against the guy. This totally blows my mind. I would never have guessed pocket pairs were so bad when they have nothing backing them up.
Now lets go to the interesting part. Where I put all my money in. The flop.
Him: 67% on the High, 0% on the low.
Me: 33% on the High, 74% on the low.
Total:
Him: 25%
Me: 33%
I am dominating him when ALL the money goes in. It again blows my mind. Ok, I am not soooooooo far ahead that I could not lose it all but not a donkey move by far.
Now the next card is a ten, but I have already committed myself. I am now a 23% to 50% dog. If I had just called the right move might be folding here. However since I already pushed this card is a moot point.
Then we hit the BINGO card, the river is my lovely 4! WOO HOO! Me: 100%. Thank you. So I guess the lesson to me on this is A) Learn the odds on Omaha-8 a little more, and B) NEVER play a hand that does not have a decent chance to scoop. The fact that his hand had no way to win except the high and hitting the K on the flop makes it a bad hand for him to play.

Lets look at it from his point of view...if you were in his shoes what would you have done?....you flopped a set of Kings...flop comes AK5....a pot bet to you...your bet?...supposed flop was K35 and it is potted to you?...how would you have played your kings?

KKXX is garbage usually unless its to limp in with several others and all four cards are working.
