Unless such happens? I've never played Omaha.
Do you use the Tournament Indicator?

What does Omaha have to do with it? I use Stud Indicator, yes.

I have only seen the community card show up in live stud games. The ones where no one is folding.

I find your bet in that spot to be interesting. I think, in some thinking games, it might get through. When it checks though to you--you know from the cards there's not a lot of risk of trips, straights, or flushes--being out there, it becomes hard for an open pair of kings to call and for a small two pair to call.

I just don't think it works all that often in this spot (since no one is folding hands that they should be and they probably aren't thinking too hard). Then again, with such a big pot, it doesn't have to work very often. It's obviously a +EV bet even working less than 10% of the time. Did it get through?

Very unusual. I have only seen it twice. I cannot remember the actual games, but probably in the pokerstars astronomer freerolls, that they had many years ago.


For those who are wondering how this could happen.
This could happen in eight seated stud, stud hi lo & razz games. Also in the stud, stud hi lo and razz levels of HORSE etc. If all players go to the 6th street, 48 cards are dealt (8x6=48) leaving only 4 cards left. When this happens one card is dealt face up and becomes a community card, for all players to use.

I have the only low almost always. So of course I bet. All 5s are dead to the other potential low as are all but 1 of the 3s. This is for value. I chopped with the high hand.

I didn't realize this was Stud/8. That makes the bet a little more straightforward.
