Andrew Neeme alongside pot Limit Omaha returned to Poker At the Lodge last night. Let’s take a look at a hand that was played between Doug & Pistol Pete. It was Live streamed on December 29th 2023 at Poker At the Lodge’s YouTube channel. The blinds were $5/$5/$10.

. BK ($3,155) in the small blind joined the action with this was followed by Pistol Pete ($5,170) meeting the straddle with . Doug ($9,185) in the third blind opted to play his hand aggressively raising it up to $250 with . It was now on the UTG Limper to decide how to play his hand. He made the call, as did BK & Pete. Four players went to the flop with $1,120 in the middle.The flop came down
giving Doug a set of Ten’s, mean while Pete had picked up a tasty wrap draw. Any six,seven,nine,Jack, or Queen would make him a straight. First to act BK checked it over to Pete, who put out a bet of $500. In Omaha slow playing is rarely an option, equities change so frequently street to street. Against a bet in front the best line for Doug to take is to play his set aggressively. That is exactly what he did, $2,000 was the raise amount. BK got the hell out of the way with his weak holdings.Pistol Pete had an absolute Monster of a draw and decided it was worth getting the remainder of his stack in the middle. After all of the action the pot stood at $11,120. Both players agreed to run the hand twice.
Considering Pete was up against a Set he was still 47% to win the pot. It was bad news straight away however when the
