Some More Omaha

Joined a few NL Omaha/8 tables tonight. Stupid game, but the players are bad so I figured I'd give it a try.

MP: $66.80
CO: $111.95
Hero (BTN): $21.70
SB: $104.15
BB: $40.60
UTG: $29.80

Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BTN with AA of diamonds AA of hearts 22 of clubs QQ of hearts
UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, CO raises to $40.60, Hero calls $21.70 all in, 3 folds

This guy was playing bad just open shoving a lot of hands. Hadn't shown down a hand yet, but obviously I'm not folding this.

Flop: ($44.65) 66 of diamonds 88 of diamonds 33 of hearts

Turn: ($44.65) TT of clubs

River: ($44.65) 22 of spades

Final Pot: $44.65

CO shows QQ of spades JJ of diamonds AA of spades 33 of diamonds (HI: a pair of Threes; LO: 8,6,3,2,A)
Hero shows AA of diamonds AA of hearts 22 of clubs QQ of hearts (HI: a pair of Aces; LO: 8,6,3,2,A)

Hero wins $21.25
CO wins $10.60
Hero wins $10.60
(Rake: $2.20)

I was about a 64-36 favorite. 3/4ths, I'll take it.

MP: $50.60
CO: $108.15
Hero (BTN): $33.65
SB: $146.20
BB: $50.00
UTG: $65.75

Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BTN with QQ of diamonds 66 of spades AA of diamonds 22 of hearts
2 folds, CO raises to $1.75, Hero calls $1.75, 1 fold, BB calls $1.25

CO is villain from first hand, who has been open shoving much less since I won that pot against him. I elect to just call his CO raise with AQ62, pretty good hand with position. BB comes along as well. No read on him.

Flop: ($5.50) JJ of hearts 33 of clubs 88 of spades (3 players)
BB checks, CO checks, Hero checks

I'm happy to check behind with my nut low draw and nothing else.

Turn: ($5.50) 77 of hearts (3 players)
BB bets $5.50, CO calls $5.50, Hero calls $5.50

Turn comes 7 and BB just fires out. I hit my low, and with CO coming along, I call too.

River: ($22.00) JJ of spades (3 players)
BB bets $42.75 all in, CO folds, Hero requests TIME, Hero calls $26.40 all in

River comes another J and he shoves all-in. I put him on something like J8xx, J3xx maybe with some kind of low hand. I didn't think he'd bet this aggressively with just a naked low. I use my time bank and elect to call. I know I'm getting at least $17.95 of my $26.40 call back, and there's a good chance I could get $35.90.

Final Pot: $74.80
Hero shows QQ of diamonds 66 of spades AA of diamonds 22 of hearts (HI: a pair of Jacks; LO: 8,7,3,2,A)
BB shows 99 of diamonds 22 of spades JJ of diamonds AA of clubs (HI: three of a kind, Jacks; LO: 8,7,3,2,A)
BB wins $35.90
BB wins $17.95
Hero wins $17.95
(Rake: $3.00)

Yeah he had both, that sucks, but getting quartered is part of the game. I thought there was a decent chance I was getting half.

1 fold, MP raises to $21.75 all in, 2 folds, Hero raises to $30.05 all in, 1 fold

Another one of these players. This guy was open shoving quite a few hands as well when I picked up this. With AA, two broadways, and one suit to the A I figured I could gamble with him.

Flop: ($44.00) 99 of spades QQ of hearts 55 of hearts

Turn: ($44.00) KK of spades

River: ($44.00) 55 of clubs

Final Pot: $44.00

Hero shows AA of clubs QQ of diamonds AA of diamonds TT of hearts (HI: two pair, Aces and Fives)
MP shows 22 of spades 55 of spades QQ of spades 66 of hearts (HI: a full house, Fives full of Queens)
MP wins $41.80
(Rake: $2.20)

That sucked. However, I'm not too distraught about the loss in that particular hand, but I looked it up and I'm only a 51-49 favorite there, even against his piece of shit hand. If I had the 56 of hearts instead of the 106 of hearts though, I go to being a 3-2 favorite. This is where I struggle with this game. Should I just muck my aces with no low cards against an all-in? Should I just swear off no-limit Omaha period?

So about -$20 for the session, but I did clear $5 more of my bonus. I have $20 more to clear, so gotta get about 333 more FT points. I am loving this happy hour concept though, getting 2x the points makes it so much easier to clear the bonus.
