Omaha H2H
2008-07-07

You're playing a heads-up pot-limit Omaha sit & go. This is the fifth hand. In all four previous hands, the dealer has raised and won the pot by continuation betting on the flop.

You get 8 6 9 4 and raise to 30, which your opponent calls.

The flop comes Q 5 2. Your opponent checks and you bluff with a bet of 60. After thinking for a while, your opponent calls. (This usually means a slow-played flush or two pair. With a set, opponents generally call quicker.)

The turn is the T. You both check.

The river is the 3 - you get lucky and hit your gutshot straight draw! Your opponent checka. How much will you bet?





0 (i.e. check) (correct)
Yup, you finally got showdown value out of your hand.

If you bet, your opponent will call with all flushes and fold almost all two pairs. You'll only get called by better hands and win nothing extra by betting. It's much more reasonable to bet when you're empty on the river; when you just can't win a showdown.
