You can lead a horse to water, but only a donkey will follow you to the river.
One of the great perks of my position at StoxPoker is that I get to learn many different types of poker vicariously through the videos that I review, and also by chatting with various coaches. One of the games that I’ve been working particularly hard on lately is Pot Limit Omaha Hi. I posted quite an interesting hand from a session this week on TwoPlusTwo and StoxPoker, and thought I’d share the general feedback I received on the hand as I found it quite interesting. Enjoy!
This hand is made more hilarious by the fact that I flopped Quad Jack’s against this player four hands prior to this one.
