That was one of the first things I learned was how strong a pair+wrap is in GII situations. I can't the number of times I'll have a pair and a dominating wrap or pair + same wrap as them and GII and I win off the pair.
Since this is BBV I had a hand from sunday night.
PLO100 american sites, both utg and sb were mega station whales if they hit a pair on the flop or better they didn't own a fold button.
UTG limps for 1, folds to sb who calls, hero is dealt T
9
9
7
who raises to 4, utg calls, sb calls
Flop: 9
8
6
(Pot 12)
sb checks, hero bets 12, utg calls, sb folds
Turn: 5
(pot 36)
Hero bets 36, UTG raises to 84, hero raises to 210, UTG raises to 290 and change and is all-in, hero calls (covers)
River: Q
Hero has 9 high flush
UTG shows J
8
5
3
and has J high flush and wins all the money.
Next hand is dealt, UTG is now BB and sits out. Hero cries.
Edit: if you wonder how he got such a big stack that was courtesy of me a a few hands earlier were he cold called my 4-bet and GII on the flop with a naked gutshot to my aces with a fd and he hit.
