 This has to be one of the strangest hands i have ever been involved in and would like people to see and learn that bluff and bluster does not work in omaha,it will win small pots and lose big ones.Apologies for not knowing how to post hands.


 PLO 2p/4p Stacks me £3-62  bluffer £4-25

 Preflop i am on Button and SB
 I call and bluffer min bets which i call     POT 16p

  FLOP           Ks  Kh   10d

    Bluffer bets 4p and i call   POT 24p


  TURN        10c

   Bluffer bets 24p ,i raise to 96p bluffer calls         POT  £2-16

 RIVER      10s

   Bluffer bets £2-16   i raise allin to £2-56 bluffer calls    POT £7-28


SHOWDOWN

  Bluffer  As Qs 9h 4c
  Me  Kc 10h 6c 4h               i win pot with quads.


  Very strange hand indeed and one which shows very clearly why use of the fold button when you have nothing is vital, rather than trying to bluff and bluster your way to the pot.

    id say a more accurate thread title would be "never bluff at microstakes omaha", if you dont ever bluff playing whatever type of game it is then you become so easy to play against you will just get crushed when trying to move up and play higher stakes

    he didn't try to bluff... he was calling you down thinking his ace high was good until the river which he thought he could use all 5 cards on the board and was chopping lol.
