BB just sat down recently, but did have Hi/Lo in his name.
CO had been fairly loose preflop, but wasn't a calling station postflop.

Full Tilt Poker $2/$4 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo - 8 players - View hand 885707

Pre Flop: (1.5 SB) Hero is MP2 with 8 Spade 9 Heart A Diamond 3 Club
UTG calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, Hero calls, CO calls, 2 folds, BB checks

Flop: (5.5 SB) 8 Club 4 Spade 7 Spade (5 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets, CO calls, BB calls, UTG calls, MP1 folds

Turn: (4.75 BB) 2 Heart (4 players)
BB bets, UTG folds, Hero raises, CO folds, BB calls

River: (8.75 BB) K Diamond (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls

I was just trying to get in cheap preflop as I really didn't have a strong hand.

From the flop on I was trying to push out competition. I bet because I had top pair/2nd nut low and didn't want someone hanging around with garbage to hit a 2 pair type hand for free.

On the turn I felt that if I can get the CO to fold, I would be greatly increasing my chances here to maybe take 3/4 of the pot with top pair. It just felt to me like the major reason that the BB would have bet on the turn is because he had A3xx and he realizes any A2xx just got counterfeited.

I was betting pretty much any non-Spade river. Even an A or 3 would give me 2 pair with a live low.

This all looks good to me. BB doesn't even really have to have A3 here, if he puts you on A2xx, there's not too many values for xx where you're going to like this turn, so he could have any clean low like A4,35,etc and might have some high potential also.

Yeah, that's me. I really respect your FLO8 game and feel good when my lines are similar to yours. I look forward to your thoughts on the subject.

Just a little history: I actually copied parts of that thread which just didn't sit right with me to Joe, Chuck and yourself. This was the part about the (J3)32 hand and its playability. Joe and Chuck spent a good chunk of time on the Hey Ball podcast discussing it(thanks again guys!). You also wrote me a few paragraphs back explaining a few things about that specific hand which helped to further clear it up. You probably just didn't recognize it because I chopped off the beginning half of the thread when I sent it to you for length reasons.

Also, what's the chances of seeing some vids from you of FLO8 6max 8/16 or something similar coming out? A mid-high stakes series from you would be great!!!
