omaha question. Is it any point of going allin with AA 7 10 ?

omaha question. Is it any point of going allin with AA 7 10 preflop?

Ore AA XX ?

It seems to me that it is coinflip every time......

Do anyone have a good solution to which AA hands it is correct to go allin preflop?

The standard answer is "it depends".

If you're short stacked, yeah it probably is. If the hand is double-suited it's probably more attractive. If there's been a raise and a re-raise ahead of you then you've probably lost some equity. There's no one simple answer, unfortunately.

Your right it depends. But is it AA hands that it would be stupid not to go allin with preflop, if you could get all your money in before the flop?

not an expert in Omaha but my opinion is ..... all in preflop unless shortstacked and necessary is reDONKulas.
I personally only rarely raise PF . the flop is the only way to even remotely know where you stand in a hand .

this is the way I look at it , AA will definitely not win by itself and even a set very rarely wins in Omaha , I like hands with the chance to get high straight or nut flush .
AA with some other good cards is a good hand and all in preflop will probably get you heads up and give you a good chance to win but I don't do it period unless shortstacked .
but I'm not really someone to listen to , just giving my opinion
study the game a little more before you start that habit is all I'm suggesting

omaha is a game of draws where draws are sometimes favourites over made hands so if ur going to commit ur stack u better have some sort of draw and not just a big pair
probably the only AA hand that is correct to stack off with preflop is AAJ10 double suited ( but im sure even stacking with that preflop is incorrect)

Maybe you people are correct, If you are up against a good omaha player you should probably fold AAxx............

( might have about 60% to win if you go allin ) ( if I remember the odds correctly best AA hand against best drawing hand)


But if you are up against a bad ore medium omaha player it would be correct to go allin with some of the best AA XX hands.

( THink might 65 to win)


But still the varaince will probably be wery high.....

If you're in a spot where you're 65% to win, or even 60% to win, then in a cash game you should be looking to get all your chips in the pot every time - variance be damned, you're making money in the long term.

In a tournament you might want to be a little more circumspect, as tournament chips don't equate directly to real dollars. But even so, AAxx is still a very strong hand.
