Poker Video: Omaha/Omaha 8 by Joe Tall (Mid Stakes)

Joe,

Nice video and nice series. I'd really like to see more Stud8/08 and maybe a series only on High Low games.

yikes i'm really not sure about that flop fold with A379

Blump, I'm drawing the wrong end of everything, not closing the action, and not willing to pay 2 bets to get past the flop.

I also think that fold is a little pessimistic in a 5handed game...

Another question: In the A349 hand where you coldcall a raise preflop, and then the tight SB 3bets
and you say he has AA or a good A2 always. Do you think it's better to always
coldcall in his situation to disguise his hand and to be not so easy to read? Or do you
lose too much value by not getting that extra bet preflop?

I would like to see some video of supershorthanded (headsup or 3 players, or 4 at most) mid-high stakes stud-hi or omaha8.

Thanks good videos!

As usual awsome vid Joe, and thanks for going over that hand I posted in the forums. I found your analysis of the river spot in the hand interesting. I didn't even seen the angle of pushing the bb out of the hand in hopes he would fold a slightly better high hand than mine and utg would have a bare A2 giving me 3/4 of the pot. As is I can't remember how the hand played out, but still learned alot..

Also I agree with urjibb that a high low series would be cool, and maybe even relate of expand on some ideas from Ray Zee's High/Low book.

I also remember you saying in some vid that since reading the Razz part of Sklansky on Poker you wanted to do more razz vids, which I think is a great idea.

Finally, collaborating with Blumpster always leads to good vids, espically in the Stud games, so would definitly like to see more of that.

I like to call or 3-bet, it's simply a good spot to mix it up as too many play it straight forward.
