Recently, I was playing Omaha Poker and a strange hand came up. I had the Ah-Qd-10d-9c and the board ran out Kh-Qh-Jh-10h-3c. We were playing “pot-limit” and it took a bit longer to put my chips in, but my opponent kept raising until I was all-in. He showed, 9h-8h-7c-6c and declared Straight [...]

Playing Against a Maniac
26. August 2009
