Here buddy call around you can find a game yourself.
Hi Eddie - You seem offended at my question (about where the $20/$40 pure Omaha-8 game was held). It was an innocent and natural question. I'm sorry if it offended you. No offense was intended.
I live in Los Angeles, am interested in Omaha-8 games in the area, and am interested in keeping up to date on the current state of Omaha-8 everywhere. Posters in this forum occasionally ask about L.A. area Omaha-8 games, and since I live in L.A., it seems like I should be able to answer their questions.
The phone references you gave are honestly not very helpful. You left out two casinos where I frequently play Omaha-8 and which usually have multiple tables of Omaha-8 at different levels operating.
More importantly, when I phone a casino, I tend to get a receptionist who doesn't give very accurate information about Omaha-8 games or tournaments. At least that's been my experience. I've called ahead of time to make sure there's a game of a certain type and then driven to the casino to play in that game only to find there's no game there of the type I expected after all.
This forum is a better source of information about local Omaha-8 games than the casino receptionists, at least in general. (That's just my opinion based on my experiences).

Buzz you don't seem to be getting the point of the well and your ?s are lacking substance. I asked you 2 ?s and you asked me where the game was?
I thought the idea of a "well" is the host of the "well" gives an introduction (which you did very nicely, and I thank you for that) - and then
the "well" host answers questions posed by others. That's my understanding of how "wells" on this forum have operated.
Otherwise, this is an open forum. Anyone can jump into a thread with a polite question, a polite answer, or a polite comment. People don't have private threads reserved for them only. My understanding of how the 2+2 forum-wide operating system functions is this forum would slow to a snail's pace snarl if that were the case. (I could be wrong about that).
When you have agreed to host a "well," anyone can ask you a polite question, answer one of your questions, or comment on something you have written.
That written, I did not realize you were addressing your questions specifically to me. I'll answer your two questions if you like:
Quote:
Are there any cards that you fold to on the turn that I didn't mention?
No.
Quote:
Is there any card you lead out or check raise on the turn I didn't mention?
Maybe. (For me it always depends on my opponents). Rightly or wrongly, and no offense intended, I would not play the hand the same as you. I already responded to your question:
Quote:
I lead out and it is 3 bet!
Whats my line on these 2 and do I cap, fold or call?
I responded to that question in a carefully thought out, somewhat analytical response - again no offense intended. I didn't feel like arguing with your rebuttal in your "well" because it occurred to me that you had a different agenda.
So I backed off. I didn't reply to your two questions because I was not sure they were specifically directed at me, and because I didn't want to post the statement "I would not play the hand the same as you" in your "well."
