Firstly, I know that this is a very trashy hand pre-flop and can't really moan too much about anything that happened after taking a flop with it, but the table was playing so loose that any broadway type hand was basically the nuts!

I felt physically sick after this hand though. One of the other guys on the table typed 'Pffffff' in the chat after I folded lol, but I just thought that I should just save my last few euro's rather than just give them away to a boat. I did all I could to get value from sets/2 pair before the river and was praying he would:

a) shove over me so we could get it in on flop/turn
b) obviously get a blank river so I could shove

I'm not sure how it works in Omaha but should I be calling it off on the river anyway with so little left behind or was my fold understandable? Let me know what you think.

Thanks

I would fold OTR. You raised him 2 times (flop and turn) on a str8 board so you quite have your hand face up, and the only draw that was drawing came OTR.

If your opponent was smarter, villain could well also have a nut straight here and be shoving to try and get you to fold a chop. However against the typical monkey he has just made a full house and you should fold.

finally please don't limp this hand preflop, especially from the button. Raise to 30 cents.
