Wow, just wow. I limped behind figuring SB would raise since he had been doing so quite a bit, including the hand before this, and lost a big pot a few hands ago. The limp-reraise isn't such a great play in hold'em, but here when you get a few callers in between and have players who will absolutely not let go of anything before the flop, it's a pretty damn attractive option. I put in the rest on the flop committed figuring my odds were slim and someone must've at least hit two pair, if not a set or straight. When the 9 paired on the river and I missed my flush I figured I was stone dead. Fun game.

Still trying to learn more about this fascinating game though. I've checked out o8poker.com, very good commentary on hands but unfortunately some links are dead. Isn't a whole lot out there about PLO8, you really have to dig. Maybe that's a good thing however since the fish can keep making the same mistakes over and over.
